Do you know the times and a postcode Betty in case anyone wants to go...  :)

It starts at 11:00 and I think it's on till about 3:00.  I don't know the postcode but they are on Beeches Road, Great Barr, Birmingham just near the motorway bridge.

Just come back from the Open Day at Thornbridge Avenue. The weather is really beautiful today and there were lots of people there.

Hope it's good for us next Saturday.

It's our last planning meeting tomorrow night where we (hopefully) sort out any last-minute problems.

We are very lucky that our neighbouring allotment site (Thornbridge Avenue) are really helpful and lend us some of their stuff so tomorrow we are collecting 'Pluck the Chicken' and the tombola drum.  Then the poor unsuspecting plotholder who has 'offered' to run the Pluck the Chicken has the lovely job of putting all its feathers in place.
