Technically, the lottie is probably in the South East but the village is Dorset and therefore South West. The village is Alderholt and is the last Dorset village going East, the village is to the right of the road with the lottie on the left, the road is the boundary between Dorset & Hampshire. However, always a South Wester so South West it is!

Hi PlymouthMaid
I am also in Plymouth. Where abouts are you? We're at Brockley Road, got our plot last August and it was also covered with grass and weeds but we cleared it and it is great now - had our first broad beans, onions and strawberries this week!

hi plymouth maid,
i am also in plymouth and got an allotment recently-which one are you at? :)

HI to all other South Westies,

I am in Cornwall, up the windy Tamar Valley near Gunnislake. My Granda had a market garden in BoHetherick if any of you know that, and having skipped a generation I am back to till on Cornish soil. Growing conditions go from bl**dy brilliant to bl**dy abyssmal depending on weather - we get a lot of it, and mostly before anyone else in the country gets it, prevailing winds being westerly. But when the sun shines the earth dries to a fine powder - like just now, we had no rain for 2 weeks when the rest of the county and even Plymouth, only 13 miles away had torrents.

Harvesting lots right now, but broad beans a disaster (did not water enough in our 2-week drought) and I cannot grow a carrot unless in a bath full of compost. Pumpkins struggling, courgettes thriving, got peas comin' out me ear'oles. Gave up on runner beans after last years harvest had a slugfest, but my spuds is gorgeous! Weeds are so jelous of my lottie they keep wanting to come on and play. But truly this is God's own county (with no apology to any other county in the south-west!)

A4U is A14ME.

Caro
