Looks very professional.but I should warn you that if this is just an advert for your blog and you're not planning on joining in the A4a community, you may not get many responses! :D

Many apologies if I've offended people - we actually thought people on Allotments4all would be interested in writing for us! I've only just found out about this site, so forgive me if I have done something de rigeur - I noticed other people had posted about their blogs, so thought it was ok to share them in this section. I've only just joined, adn am looking forward to being part of the community. Apologies if I haven't done the right thing - please forgive me - I'm a newbie!

People do frequently mention their blogs or have a link to them in their profile or signature but they write the blog themselves.

well that's good because I write Fennel and Fern myself!

That should read "not de rigeur" surely....

Welcome to A4A :)

Hi Fennel you will have to excuse the caution but there have been quite a few few sellers on here lately and the odd one trying to spoil the forum and when your opening line is advertising your blog people tend to get a bit suspicious, so welcome from me and do you have a lottie. ;D ;D ;D

Put the link in your signature and enjoy the site!

Sadly no lottie, still working on that (need to get to the top of a waiting list, settle somewhere for more than 2 years and persuade my husband), so instead I dug up a lot of my lawn and am growing veg there! I also have a fire escape which will be playing host to tomatoes, peppers and lettuce.

Have just redesigned a garden which, when we moved there, was covered in bindweed and had a load of plants which had been plonked in the soil without much fore-or after-thought. After weeks of riddling rubble and toy cars out of the soil, we have started on our potager.

Sorry if I unnerved anyone, I'm just quite enthusiastic about a site I spend a lot of my free time writing and maintaining, and all for no money! But so far I've loved being a part of your community.

Anyone who digs up the lawn gets my vote.... :)

hope you laid the taken up grass in a corner of the garden to breakdown, it makes fantastic soil after a year ;)
