will keep everything crossed for you, saddad, we're now approaching the 900.00 profit margin so, I hope you get lots of visitors :)

I've just e-mailed Chris Evans hoping for a national plug on drive time!

The NGS bright yellow posters are out locally, and I've just spent the afternoon sorting out stuff for the plant sale..........not bad for only two hours sleep after finishing night shifts this morning! ;D

We made a flying visit today on our way back from Barnsdale. What an amazing site! So many plots and such variety, and obviously a real community project. Saddad was indeed the stressed one on the plant sales, did a great job on us!I'd never heard of Achocha before but he persuaded us to buy one! Saw DebP again, too- really impressed with the work she's done on her plot in such a short time, and loved the willow den. Sorry, didn't get any pics, we were in a rush to get home as daughter no.1 had to be taken to dancing.

Great to see Caroline and OH again, I have almost lost my voice today (there's a first!) and it took me all afternoon to plant out 30 sweetcorn because I kept stopping and chatting to all the visitors!!! I also have pink bits where I shouldn't thanks to the good weather, thank goodness we didn't hold it last weekend when it was foul! ;D

Deb P · « **Reply #33 on:** June 04, 2007, 15:08:45 »

In theory, until it all kicks off again in September........ ;D

manicscousers · « **Reply #34 on:** June 04, 2007, 17:16:21 »

we're doing 2 tables on june 17th, one of the lads has organised a car booty at the club, so we're going to try to boost our total up...mad, all of us :o :o

saddad · « **Reply #35 on:** June 04, 2007, 19:43:38 »

The plant residue will be sold off at the gate over the next few weeks to boost the total...

Well done you guys ;D sounds like you had a great day

Out of interest, what does your site spend the profits on? Our site doesn't currently do anything like this, and once we're established I might try suggesting it ;)

saddad · « **Reply #37 on:** June 05, 2007, 23:26:35 »

Mainly to keep us solvent Kitten as the chairman is a meglomaniac with plans for world domination... shouldn't complain though as we have proper toilets, a museum and great facilities... we have spent @ £ 30,000 while I have been treasurer... but our rents are pathetically low at £15 pa... we only put it up from £10 pa last year!!!!

Well done saddad and debs. ;D ;D ;D

I think it's agreat idea and am definately going to suggest it to my lottie assoc as they don't do anything like that. Aside from fund raising it's a great community thing too eh?

saddad · « **Reply #39 on:** June 11, 2007, 00:09:33 »

Raised £450 for NGS and just under for us from the plant sales... here are a few pics that weren't out last week..
