Had a walk around the garden this evening after tea and this is a few of the things I saw;

There's still a lot of lovely colour in your garden.

I never tire of seeing your weed-free, beautiful garden! It gives me something to strive towards.

Ah come on now GrannieAnnie - surely this is just the allotment version of fashion magazine airbrushed models ... no REAL allotment actually looks as pristine as that?

I certainly don't strive towards it and love my perpetually weedy plot that still somehow gives me armfuls of lovely vegetables without looking perfect.

I'm sure we all need our own pin-ups to inspire though!

Perhaps so John,

I haven't taken any pictures of my two plots for a while but this is how they looked the last time I photographed them, so I will let you judge them for your self  :dontknow:   :occasion14:    cheers!
