It's good to see so many of us! The people on my local site, are highly suspicious of the idea of an "allotment form" and can't seem to understand why I use it so much! So I'm guessing you won't see many other people from King's Lynn on here!

Hello - I've just joined the forum and I'm near Downham Market just 20 mins south of King's Lynn - as long as you don't get stuck behind that tractor  ;)

lorna, ceratonia and prink13.

I was born in March  (Cambs) in March (Month), A real March Hare. I was actually born in the March Nursing Home, I understand it is now an old folks home (have they got it ready for me?). Although I have lived for about 75 years in the Highlands (of Cambs.) and two years in Norfolk (Larkshall, East Wretham).

Now they are building the A428 by-pass, they have created a lake and a mountain opposite my bungalow.

Larkshall, Is that the one in Robin Goodfellowes Lane? I had a shop in Darthill Rd in early 80's and I understood the building was split in to individual flats. I think there is a "warden" system in operation.

Cambridge - but no longer physically there! Was born there and lived there until 22 years old, but then temporarily became a West Yorkshire lass until moving to Mainland Europe (now in France)!  Still have a soft spot for Cambridge though - my Dad used to grow amazing vegetables in our back garden.  ;D

I've just this second joined this forum. I've got two plots in Peterborough and I drive a big Land Rover... Does that count as a tractor?

My Missus thinks so.

Thank you very much. If anyone is interested there are some images of my two plots as they were when I got them and as they are now 10 months later.
