cool its given me an idea, rather than pay £1000 to me for the allotment design service, I will set up a web site and people can pay me :-)

I read it this morning as well. I think I shall open my allotment to the paying public [especially to those who seem to have far too much of it and spend it at Harrods!] and perhaps run skip raiding courses.
For once in my life I have been ahead of fashion - or perhaps even better....a trendsetter!!!! Who will join me on the allotment fashion show cat walk????

The allotment fashion show cat walk, now there is a stunning idea!!

I think you should start a thread with a virtual fashion show for lottie owners.And no I don't look like the posh woman next door in The Good Life.

Come on somebody start a thread.....please. I don't want to barge in on this one

OK. If it is £1000 for a bit of paper showing several raised beds complete with lists of plants, how much is it for a bespoke 'dig it and plant up' service? I need the money. So. £1000 plus travel ex's plus any stock-materials plus tea and biccies gets it cleared, dug and set up. Any takers.

Oh well. Back to the day job.
