Planting in a bath

[Robert_Brenchley]

What's wrong with a bog full of flowers in the front garden? Our site is seriously dishevelled - maybe you wouldn't want to be seen dead there - but the waiting list is longer every time we hold a committee meeting, so there's nothing seriously wrong!

I don't personally have a problem, but I know there would be a riot about toilets round here. 

The look does not stop people who want an allotment applying but it is not popular with people who might potentially have them next door.  It is a major turn off for people who are considering allowing their land to be used as allotments.

Allotments now are the in thing to have, everyone who is anyone wants one. We see them come and go on our lottie some dont make the first year out they find it is hard work and with pests mother nature nothing grows acording to plan. I do blame gardening programs for making it sound so easy to do, even giving away free seeds.
Its fine if you want a perfect manicured lottie all lotties matching and all plants in straight lines or set perfect squares. perhaps with a no shed policy ( would have helped me as mine was burnt down last year) and with mains water at every plot.
Or do as they do abroad, they have summerhouses with lawns in frount and then the vedges. Where the family spends the weekend cooking and sleeping on their lotties. Above their summerhouses they fly flags of their country.
Perhaps this would be the way to go? for the uper classes to grow their organic vedge or perhaps manure would not be allowed either?

our allotment is being included in Wigan in bloom..we must be doing something right, 15 plots, 14 on the waiting list. been told it's the best site in the area  :o
anyway, we don't care, we quite like folks being able to be themselves, allowed to use their imagination, to make their little piece of paradise  ;D
