Whoopeedoo, I'm a Winner!
« on: June 28, 2008, 22:26:33 »
Got home from hols to find a letter telling me I have won 3rd prize in the 5 rod allotment comp! I didn't even know my 'umble plot was being entered.
Now planning my acceptance speech and threading new string through my boots...I may even wash my best, least holey pair of gardening gloves for the prize giving. If I decide on a celebratory bash you are all invited. ;D
Smile, it confuses people.

Well done! Got any recent plot photos to post?
If it's not pouring with rain, I'm either in the garden or at the lottie! Probably still there in the rain as well TBH....🥴

well done
  I was recently asked if I would like to judge the allotments in the next village, but I turned the invitation down.

Well done, Emaggie. Was there a prize, or just the presyige? I remember my f-i-l winning prizesfor his wine- the prizes were monetary- I think the maximum was about 50p! ;D
