Allotments 4 All

I'd like to have a look as well. If you E-mail it to me, I can host it on my web space for others to download, if that would be OK of course.

It is jenyym's calculator Looby Loo, so if you pm her with your email addy, I am sure she will oblige ...

It would be improper of me to pass it on without her permission, I hope you understand.

Marjrie and Lily, if you pm me with your e-mail address I will send the spreadsheet on to you.
Looby Loo - I have sent it to you now.

Ok mines a bit of a blue peter job.

It consists of a cornflake packet, and some glue. (or double sided tape to keep with the blue peter fashion.)

I may take 2 cornflake packets to do this. You can use any brand  ;D

Make a deep sided tray with cormflake packet 1
Then make deviders with cornflake packet 2 and slot them into the tray that you made out of cornflack packet 1

You will need 12 dividers, Mark the at the top January ... ... ... ... March........ .. . .. June etc I think you have the idea about the labeling.

Once you have done that put your seed packets, notes, reminders and plans in each section. Job Done. A good thing to do on a cold winters day. Also ask the kids to help out they would love it. Why not make a childs planner for a smal section of the garden or plot? It will get them really interested in growing the own veg also it would get them in the fresh air and encourage there creative skills.

Keep all of this in your fridge to keep the seeds happy. You may need to remake this each year. When it is time to make a new one rip up the old one and put it into your composter.

Recycling at its best  ;D

Ha ha, it may look simple, but it still sounds effective and organised. Sometimes these clever little touches elude me ...

I understand, Derek.  Jennym, my email address is on it's way to you.

Many thanks.   :)

I have tried sketching a version of the lottie in excel by filling in boxes with different colours to represent different crops. seems to work, however, the reality is that I just use my memory of what went where and hardly consult my spreadsheet (naughty david!).

But, I have to learn a new program for work, microsoft project, and i am wondering that I might use my new found skill to good use  for my real passion.  I will try it out and let you know how it pans out.

Jennym you're a star.  Email received, many thanks.  Have sent you a PM.

Lily  :)

Thank Jennym... :)
