I have read threads on here that people have purchased a 5yr diary / planner of sorts. An allotment diary. Where can I buy one?
I know some people make their own too.
knowing your luck you will find one blowing down guisborugh highstreet :)
I'm hoping someone will get me this next Christmas :-[ ::)

That's just the ticket SS. Apart from you and me (I'll be making do with a notepad ;D) my S-i-Law would be a very happy recipient. Noted.

lol ;D ;D ;D
I have never done a garden diary b4. Didnt realise they were so expensive SS. £18. Are they worth it?
There's a selection at Amazon KT. Not as expensive as the Dodo one, but much more trad. Dodo products are very special, satisfying and fun.
you can get cheaper diaries kt, especially at this time of year.
But they're not dodo pads :P
This diary is designed to accumulate experience over the years :)
Ideally someone will buy one for me - if not, I'll splash out ;D
I've had this in the January sales for £8, might be worth keeping in mind for next year (unless you're feeling very flush!)
ooh where did you find it Laura?
i have a larger then normal workload that requires me living in my diary for most of this year, so i have decided not to include my allotment stuff in the diary ( actualy an a4 filofax which is about 2 inches thick already ) and instead use my outlook diary for the allotment.
That way i can set up reminders and i have created a hidden web page i export it to ( or plan to ) which means i can access my to do list from anywhere.
Anyone else using outlook?

Balls, forgot the link :) ::)
Boots where I live (Bridgwater, Somerset) had a nice one in the christmas gift sale £5 (it was £10), they had quite a few left although the Taunton branch didn't have them at all. Before Christmas Asda had them as I got given one from there from my mum as a pressie.
Also, the Dodo one is on amazon for £10.52, I'm quite tempted as I wanted an excuse to order some other books on there, but at this rate I'll have a whole drawer full of gardening diaries!
oo well spotted jellywelly! :-*
now I'm in a pickle ... what excuse do I have for NOT getting it? :-[ :P ::)
Delivery in 4-6 weeks? Usually means they can't get hold of it.. :'( :'(
I picked a diary up from The Works (bookshop) for £1.50p, plenty big enough and good enough for the allotment and it also has a full page for every day.
Guess it might be an diary with daily pages on then. For this year as a starting point and see how it goes for next

WAAUUUGH!
:'(
I just checked on Amazon and it says delivery 5-8 days so they must have new stock available, they also have the same book available through their other sellers list, lowest price £9.99 (not inc p&p)
WHEEEEE!
;D ;D ;D
This is a summary of my allotment & garden diaries for the last twenty years;
