I'm very excited. Don't have to figure out how to get sweetcorn into the garden now. Along with everything else I've been stockpiling on the off chance ;)

I'm using my incredible psychic powers and predicting I'll be doing a lot of digging over the next few weeks...

Congratulations!! ;D

Now the graft begins .. all VERY exciting ... but remember ... little and often ;D

ENJOY. Talk soon. FLx

Congratulations.

It doesnt sound much when you say 5 rods ;D but it will seem like a football field once you start digging. Remember to take your time.

I have two suggestions:

Invest in large quantities of porage outs for breakfast, and large quantities of Radox for afterwards.

Good luck.

Whoo hoo.
Happy Digging, and Good Growing Bananagirl
does this mean you will get the boss's shed now?

bananagirl · « **Reply #7 on:** February 23, 2006, 14:19:31 »

Nah, unfortunately, he's already given it away, although it's still sitting in it's box at the back of the stage.

You never know, I might already have a shed.

Woo hoo ;D ;D ;D bananagirl, great news! Hope this is the start of many seasons of fun with your plot. Take it steady! If you leave off your glasses couch grass looks a lot like green manure ;). Pics asap please!

Congratulations on your new plot! I only got my plot a few weeks ago so I know the feeling well! I am still in the weeding stage and am convinced some days that the weeds are winning, but I am enjoying it even more than I thought I would. My advice would be if you drink tea, then make sure you have a flask to take some with you!

Have fun and please post pics!

Congratulations ;D Hope you have fun.
The best bit is having a bench and a cup of coffee and making plans!!!

My flatmate and I are going to visit it on Sunday, so I will take my camera along for the ride, and get the pics up as soon as. Very excited. :o

You've certainly got your lottie at the right time for the start of the season. Should be great fun!

Well done to you ;D a great time to start the season off too ;) Plant a banana plant to mark your territory ;D you may get lucky and grow some, especially if you're in Aussyland or was it London ???

I can remember what I was like last year, when I got my lottie. Like a kid let loose in a sweet shop.

Enjoy it. It;s worth all the hard work.

Let us know how you get on
