ah, so there are plotters in lancashire that are online, where abouts in preston?

I'm in Penwortham on the Penwortham Holme West site and enjoying every minute (well almost ::)) of my first year as an allotmenteer
This glorious weather is certainly helping with the 'feel good - let's get out to the plot' attitude - was down there for 2 hours weeding, watering and (best of all) picking crops.....potatoes, sugar snap peas, broad beans and courgettes
How are things going with you over in Blackburn?
Plottie :)

Ooooooh Lancashire people!! :)
I am in sunny Oldham......well it is today...and just started on my lovely plot. Cannot get over hoe friendly this site is and how much info there is!! Would be good if people said which area they are in re planting times etc, cos we are a bit behind up here in the usually frozen North!!
Glad to see you at Blackburn and Preston! ;D

Didn't Oldham used to be in Yorkshire?

katynewbie · « **Reply #7 on:** June 28, 2005, 19:22:23 »

Lol...best way to Oldham!!! Never heard that before!!
But to be honest I have only been here since 1988 so what would I know?!!

katynewbie · « **Reply #8 on:** June 28, 2005, 19:25:32 »

Missed one.......Yorkshire??????????????????
Well, Saddleworth people (posh, they are) think that they are in West Yorkshire, but still pay council tax to Oldham......I rest my case!!!

Hi Gardenantics
