I am still around, but after all the nonsence that took place, I felt uncomfortable and decided to take a wander and lie low. I still check in periodically, as the spies amongst you know, but there are so many of you now, all so knowledgeable, that by the time I wander in during the evening, all questions are well and truly answered.
Thanks for the lovely notes Busy Lizzie and Wicker, I was truly touched! And those of you who posted, thank you.
As I will be around a lot less, I have unlocked the rogues gallery so you can add your own photos.
Nice to see you again EJ...have missed your posts. Hope to catch you at Alder Carr in Feb....I'll do as you suggest and wear a leek in my lapel...I'll also wear a fruit hat aka Carmen Miranda but will wear sunglasses as not to make myself conspicuous!! ;D
EJ - your input has been missed and I do hope that your visits and posts will become more frequent as time passes - perhaps you could persuade Tim to return as well!
All the best
Carrie
Hi Emma, nice to see you to see you nice ;D ;D ;D.
Emma i have a fuchsia book if you would like it, my husband was sorting out a cabinet today and said is there any reason we have TWO fuchsia books the same ,
yes says i just cannot remember what i buy to do with my Fuchsias it just seems if i see Fuchsia i have to have it. ;D ;D ;D Yours if you want it ok. ;D ;D
Emma, I'm happy you got in touch but vexed that you don't intend posting regulary - hope you reconsider. There are always newbies who welcome advice and I know from experience that no matter how long we grow/garden we always have failures that need explaining, advice on prevention and inspiration and suggestion about new things to try - well I do anyway. And we all know there isn't much you ahven't or won#t try!! In the nicest possible way of course ::)
I look forward to seeing you on the boards very regularly............
Emma, I am so glad you have popped in - a warm welcome back! The place hasn't seemed the same without you and Tim. Glad you haven't deserted us entirely; we still value your know-how and enthusiasm. Hope you managed to get out to your allotment today and it was sunny where you were. All the best, busy_lizzie

Hi Emma - so pleased to see you've 'popped in'.....really missed your posts, not just for the always helpful info you give but for the fun & enthusiasm they always contain - like a breath of fresh air....we love hearing about your trips to your lottie & what Ava & the 'sprogs' have been up to....it's like missing a member of the family.....please think again and visit us very regularly.
H.P.
Hot Potato just said it all for me, no need to repeat it then!!
Come back soon EJ :'(
Yes, nice to see you Emma :)
Agree Agree Agree! I think EJ you were one of the first to welcome me to the boards when I arrived a few weeks ago so thanks for that and hope you find your way back on here to welcome lots of other newbies. :D
I can only echo the above posts, I have missed you and your expertise. Glad you have come back and hope your visits become more often as things settle down. I don't know what has gone on but it has obviously upset a lot of people. Take care.
E.j.,or someone else can explain me what is going on,been aboard a while ,but noticed now a evil cloud above allotments4all,i hope its drifts away.E.J i dont have a clue what is goiing on but when you aint on the board for some days it must be serious the same reason tim left?????????
No PM facility, so Welshpool?
EJ hope you reconsider and come back of a more regular basis, same for Tim as well, I miss reading both of your posts :)
tim's still about :)
hopefully he'll post again sometime soon
EJ needs to come back cos we need to know how Ava's plants are doing ;D
EJ - growing stuff's about eating it too - and we NEED you here, pinny on..
Same for Tim :-* and btw...just the one time I'd have liked him to post a pic of the minor elephant garlic (!) I sent him (don't have a camera, me) he disappears from the site and cooks it :o ;D
Good to see you still around Emma. ;D I hope that you were not one who was effected by all the rubbish thats gone on recently. Keep us updated with the lottys, and the extended family. ;) ;D
Emma, I've missed your posts.
EJ I've missed your posts as well as Tims.
Do keep in touch.
Anna
Emma, hope you do return frequently to the Site. I am sure all the 'crap' is now over. Without you and Tim, A4A seems to have lost its 'heart'. You both give such a big contribution to the Board.
:'( :'( :'(
I miss your posts and your presence here on the board EJ. Hope we can coax you to come back more often in the future.
Miss Tim's posts too!
E.J. Tis You ;D ;D ;D
I think you can see you're missed! Illegitimi non carborundum! ;)
EJ hello ! :D
( and Tim too ) ;)
will be suffering from some serious withdrawl symptoms from lack of advice in the booze dept!!
what comes next to brew please? ???
Hi EJ!
I am fairly new to this site but from what I can see you add a lot of fun and humour to the site. I know it has been a preety bad time on here for everyone but lets put it behind us.
Talk 2 you soon,
Dan ;D
Glad to see you back ;D

Glad to see you back ;D
Well that didnt work did it ?
Only just seen this thread EJ - but agree with everything that's already been said. Glad you put your message and I too miss Tim. Hope you'll both soon be back regularly.
Anne.
So, EJ...two pages of peeps saying come back v.v.v.soon - don't think we need a Poll..........do we? ;D
As to Tim..........I'm working on him ;) ::) ;D
Come back EJ. How am I going to get my monster to you if you're not around to catch?? Do you still want a bit, if I can ever figure out what to cut (was years ago I posted about it, and now it is of epic proportions and needs serious trimming) :o
Hi Emma,
I am one of the lurkers that come to this site to get questions answered, to read people's posts and to see there are others who struggle with a wet, cool climate. I live on Washington state's coast in the US near the Canada border. I have come to enjoy your posts over the last year and look forward to the wonderful pics you post as well as the little one's under your signature.
I have no idea what "unpleasantness" happened here. But it is the nature of forums to have divisions on how it should be run and who should have a say. I think it's just the nature of the times. People forget common sense when they are posting on the net since it's largely anonymous and it brings out the worst in some, the best in others.
Suffice to say even I miss your presence here.
Besides... who is going to teach me how to grow broad beans!
Your obedient servant,
peg
;D
E.j.and others dont let some or mayby one spoil the joy of reading and writing on this board,get back ignore them dont let them win.And to the one you spoils it for others,be glad you are behind a p.c,because in my eyes you are cowards you dont have the nerve to say this in person and yes i am pissed.So that is what i want to say about all thus bullshit that was going on this lovely side,dont let it die,keep the good spirit alive.By the way people watch your in and outbox clear it on time because othjer wise people cant send you a p.m. Have a nice weekend.
Good to see you back EJ - please stick around :)
Yes, good to see you posting again, EJ. And long may it continue. I missed your cheery posts (and recipes) :).
Emma - we know that you've already loaded yourself way above the Plimsoll line, & now have new, hopefully short-term pressures.
BUT -
- you know that the colour, interest & enthusiasm of your posts have been very crucial in keeping the wheels of the wagon turning. So - please - do try to keep us abreast of all you wondrous doings?
Your smile is always a silver lining = Tim
Tim, is that really you?? Oh, welcome back - even if it is simply to encourage Emma Jane (keep doing that) now that you have put your toe in the water so to speak PLEASE DON'T DISAPPEAR AGAIN.
Really lookign forward to regular post from both of you.
Thank you Tim and thank you everyone. WOW! What a heap of responses, you daft lot. You do make me smile. Thank you for all of your kind words, and Tim, glad you found you way back.
Tim and EJ - result ;D ;D Now both stick around, or else ;D
