More compost was delivered this week
Struggling with water as it has been turned off twice with burst pipe, now a ball thingy problem, I'm sure the council will reimburse us for 3 months of no water, toilets being the main problem. :-X

Well the council cut down two of our giant fir trees and trimmed the top off the others last week, three cheers for Graham. ;)

Rubbish trailer arrived sometime this weekend and it was full today but I still managed to get some rubbish on top, its piled right up now, more compost was delivered last week up the other end of the site. ;D

We've had some more compost delivered, no ones steamed into it yet, looks like they have all got enough for the time being. ::)

More compost delivered and a trailer for the rubbish.

More compost, lucky you, we don't seem to get much anymore. We have got a rubbish truck coming soon.

Hi All, sorry we've been away for sooo long but so such has happened

cornykev · « **Reply #67 on:** December 04, 2012, 17:12:17 »

Went to the lottie at the weekend and found another great pile of council compost and it looks like they've had one at the other end weeks ago.

cornykev · « **Reply #68 on:** January 10, 2013, 18:08:13 »

We've just had some burnt down sheds on site so be vigilant people, ow and we had another compost delivery.

Borlotti · « **Reply #69 on:** January 11, 2013, 03:08:55 »

What is going on with this compost. Its just not fair, we were told we couldn't have any.

Actually haven't been to the allotment for 2 weeks, had a chest infection (very nasty). Might have a walk up today and see if anything is happening re the redevelopment of George Spicer School. Some people will lose their allotments, but not me. I wish the Council would cut our big fir trees down. Kev must have friends in high places.

I told you they cut our fir trees half down didn't I.

Seed Spuds will be in the Clockhouse Nursery this Thursday.

cornykev · « **Reply #72 on:** January 18, 2013, 14:57:28 »

I went to The Clockhouse on Thursday and they have a big selection of spuds, onions, shallots, peas and asorted beans.

Another delivery of council compost, its gone up the poor end of the site as its their turn, bless them.

Borlotti · « **Reply #74 on:** March 02, 2013, 20:04:54 »

I hate you Kev, we have only had one compost delivery and nothing is left for poor old me. Sob, sob. We also got broken into, but they took nothing, but tried to get the chicken which has now been taken home. My new friend at the allotments gave me some articokes, Jersulam ones, to plant. I am so lucky with my friends, even though 3 people have unfriended me on facebook, but I don't care.

I was in Enfield last night lambasting some chavsters for ruining the film I was watching. Three times I told 'em to button it and then I lost my rag. Wasn't you, was it? ;) Getting back on topic, I'm about 17 miles from Enfield so can I come too pretty please? :-*

Was that at the Cineworld? Now that we have retired we go at lunchtime and it is nice and quiet 'cos all the kids are at school.

We are in Chingford and have an allotment there. But it doesn't sound as good as yours cornykev. Ours is a right tip with no mod cons apart from the water tanks.

We go to the Clockhouse too.

Hi Mrs T and welcome, our toilets are basic but they have put up new fencing and gates and cut back trees and shrubbery, the compost is a bonus but don't mention it to Borlotti as she gets a bit grumpy when I mention it.

Mrs Tweedy · « **Reply #78 on:** March 05, 2013, 07:38:30 »

Even basic toilets would be welcome. Luckily we live very near our allotments.
We can't get the free compost delivered to our site as lorries can't get to the site. I know I tried to organise it. We have to go to the local recycling dept with shovels and bags and carry it on to site.

Hubby does it with much moaning and groaning and telling me about it in detail.

We are pleased with the way our lotty is coming on. We have only had it 3 years and had to carve a plot out of the wilderness. Still loads to do to get it really good but we are on our way.

Best of British to you Mrs T, where abouts are the lotties in Chingford.
