I was only taking the p..s, always wanted to see a white chair on an allotment (have been reading other thread, and was only winding you up).  Hope you have a lovely day, live in London so it is quite a way to travel without a car.  I envy you, one day we may be able to move away into the countryside.

Derby is technically a city (made when in '77)... about 250,000 inhabs.. hardly the countryside but very close.  :)

Ooh I would love to come but its a (almost) 300 mile round trip on my own... If a few more people are up for sharing travel costs/driving from Bristol then I might be swayed. It better be good though!!  ;)

Glosterwomble usually comes... I know it's not actually near Bristol but it is in the right direction...  :-\

With the watering cans... yes. I'll not be wearing a carnation, I'll be the harrassed one behind the plant sales...  :)

He'll be even more harrassed this year, my two kids are going to 'help' him out on the plant stall......he will need the patience of a saint and a large cattle prod!

I'll be split between the tea tent, getting the samosas in, and whatever else I'm tasked to do.... ;D  Dunno if OH will come and talk about the shed all day like he did last time... ::)
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....🥴
