Hi Jim and welcome from me too. Fingers crossed you won't be waiting too long.

You seem to be doing the right thing so far....Joining A4A.

Don't forget you can start *collecting* bits and pieces while you are waiting. Skips are a great place to start, scraps of wood etc.
If you are lacking any tools you could start by asking on *Freecycle* or visit car boots. Let all your friends know, they might have some tools they no longer use.Then you will be ready to go when you get the call  :D

Fingers crossed for you.
Lauren  :)

Welcome to A4A, Jim. This is the best time of year to get a plot- hopefully still some decent weather to get out there, but the weeds are slowing down. Hope the grapevine is right! :D
