I have been given half a plot at the leach road site. There are a few of us in the Bicester area. Fat Larry was on the Skimmingdish Lane site that they are trying to close down, and Merlins Mum is around here too!
Small world isn't it.

Have been reliably informed by the hubbie that we are on the leach road lottie site not Launton road  :-[

We are plot number 51!  We've had ours for a year and a half and are very  (VERY) slowly taming the weeds!

Where is your half plot?

Hi kcarlisle and madmum

I'm on leach road too.  Only had the plot a month so a lot of hard work ahead.  We had a lottie with fat larry at Skimmingdish Lane but left when we got a letter from the church's solicitors.  Very sad  :'(

I have sent you 2 pm's madmum, did you get them?

Merlins Mum
The lotties in Chippy are by the Leisure Centre on the Burford Road.  And no they are not on a slope, They are as flat as you can find.

Hi Thomas
Pleased they're flat, it's just that I think of most of Chippy being on the side of a hill  ;D
When we first moved to Oxfordshire, we nearly bought a house there.

Caversfield, Bicester for me. 

No allotment but have 3 raised beds, a greenhouse, lots of pots and 2 apple trees in my own personal back garden allotment.  I do the veg and my wife does all the pretty flowery bits around the borders.
