Wishing the little kitten the best of a healthy life after all your diligent care. 

Did the Davington Epicure tomatoes ever do anything for you?

I have wondered about this , I have a hori hori I never leave it on site or out of my sight and it's safely tucked away when leaving the plot . It's an incredible tool and have wondered why I haven't seen one being used on Gardeners'World !

Saw this story online about an allotment gardener arrested for possession of an offensive weapon.

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/jul/28/man-allotment-gardening-tools-arrest-armed-police-manchester

QuoteA man who had returned home from his allotment with a trug of vegetables and gardening tools strapped to his belt was arrested by armed police, after a member of the public said they had seen "a man wearing khaki clothing and in possession of a knife".
