The start of this thread grabbed me as tensions rose!
I agree,it depends on how all this is portrayed with the current perception of the media and past experiences the world over. (By the way, I love the Good Life!)
I am 39 and had a plot for a year & 4 months. First full year surprised me by amount of produce! :D
Knew nothing about gardening apart from when we used to "nick" grandads peas in his garden when we were kids!
I think his garden was transformed by the Grow for Victory around the war times.
Recently drove from Calais to Belgium and when coming back to Surrey on a breakdown vehicle, we were higher up and could look around. We saw lovely allotments with nice matching sheds etc. Looked great but if we lock anything in a cupboard it gets broken into! :-\
A shame because it means putting rotivator on a trailer each time and keeping it at home.
I would be very interested in any program ORION TV makes,hopefully I will hear about it BEFORE it is shown and not AFTER which is the norm for me!
The variety of people at our plots near Gatwick is amazing. Many colours and ages and 98% friendly. The oldest being 93 and a regular on her hands and knees! Great to see :)
I admire them for it and asist by doing grass round their plot and getting them manure. Didn`t want anything for it but they insisted in thanking me with a bottle of scotch ;D ;D :P
If program is made then MAKE SURE you let us all know on here.....................
