Look familiar?

I have subscribed to GYO since the first issue and I have subsequently bought all of the KG mags at a carboot (about 100 mags for £2!!) and I have to say I prefer the KG mag.  I keep meaning to cancel the GYO sub because to be honest 100+ gardening mags is enough for anyone I think and the information is basically the same over and over - only new varieties change.  Having said that I have enjoyed GYO so I hope you do too.  The previous thread re GYO was about a year ago when someone got a curt reply from the editor and the thread turned into a bit of a GYO roasting so don't be put off by that!

You don't need Magazines!
Bill Sowerbutts was your man! Dead for 15 yrs. of course but if you can still find the seed variety he recommended - go for it. (google him)
Flavour over yield!

Bill Sowerbutts...never heard of him... (gardener's question time???) .tell me more!! flavour over quantity always!!!  ;D
  Back to the thread.... It's a good magazine!  we have had an allotment for 20yrs and its still good to keep up to date with what is going on. Always fun to try new veg/fruit and makes a change to be given recipies for what you have grown . Is so easy to get into a rut. Must never forget that this has a site for new growers who need lots of basic help..anyone with more than a couple of years of experience has loads to offer. Cab has given some very useful advice and is obviously a very experienced grower. Everyone has to start somewhere (or be put off!!!)
We are starting on a new site with very different soil conditions , so we can now grow fruit for the 1st time. This magazine has been so helpful..aswell as their grapevine. We all need as much help as we can get..whether newbies or oldies!!! ;D Do join in.....

Interested in your reply tin can.
I don't wish to be disrespectful with regard to anyone who wishes to take magazines.
I subscribed to KG for a year & am a member of their website but it's not as lively or informative as this one!
If you've been an allotment holder for 20yrs. & haven't heard of Bill - well? what can one say?

Maybe too young Telboy?

Mmm ...or toobusy with a fulltime job and 2 kids>>>etc etc....any help always welcome!!!
