Just thought I would share these pics with you. We are so very pleased with how things are going and growing. Never dreamed that we could get this far in just 6 months

I'm so glad that you all like the plots. Yes we have worked hard on them. We are only able to go 3 times a week because of the location and also other commitments. We do have a half plot nearer home and have just finished putting up a shed for me mom to sit in while were working. This is why we haven't been on the forum much lately. It means that I can go to this plot more often and take her with us, Will take a pic of it today. She calls it her hut. lol

Wonderful Shirl 8)  Amazing amount of work in such a short time and it's all looking soooooo productive already. And when I think that you've also a half plot on another site not even near this one.....incredible!


Dunno know what you and Tone are on to give you all this energy, but please can I have some?

 ;D

Wow. Along with Tony you have worked so hard, you have just made such an amazing progress. Looking forward to seeing more pics of Mum enjoying the visits to the lottie.
(not forgetting the little ones :))
Hope you have an abundance of produce, you deserve it ;D

 :o :o Wow amazing results. A plot to be very proud of.
My idea was to build Liverpool into a bastion of invincibility. Napoleon had that idea. He wanted to conquer the bloody world. I wanted Liverpool to be untouchable. My idea was to build Liverpool up and up until eventually everyone would have to submit and give in. Bill Shankly.

I'm v impressed and v envious!!!

I suggested to my boss that he carried on paying me a salary but instead of coming into work I'd go to my allotment. he wasn't v impressed!

think it's going to take me 6 years to end up with a plot that looks anywhere near as good as that ::)
congratulations on the fab results of all your hard work ;D

What a lovely pic of Mum. So nice that she enjoys coming to the lottie with you. You
certainly are doing wonders on both counts, looking after Mum and creating a brilliant lottie.
