  • I'd looked at their site Woo but its "under construction" and has been for some time. At the moment the plan is to get ex-batts but I've either got to wait until sometime just before Christmas or the end of February. Christmas is only next month so not that long to wait really image 

  • Think I spotted Katie's dad from Youtube at his allotment on the way to Hillier's Braishfield I got some turf for the garden

    lots of fruit in the GC now

    No not too long fruitcake, it will give you time to get organised. I remember I was so excited when I went to get my chooks lol! Have you decided how many you're getting?

     Rain overnight, high grey clouds, mild and damp! Good intentions to sort out the shed and get behind it, could be all sorts lurking there  image 

  • I want 6 Woo image 

    proper torrential downpour in Bristol this morning so I'll not be going to cut the grass at the allotment today. It's been raining steadily since so it's just gonna be a mud fest up there. I'm back to work tomorrow and off to London on Saturday, and then going off collecting random things for the other plot on Sunday so I'm not sure when the grass is gonna get done 

  • Wet windy all night and still wet this morning but looks as though it will be dry now sun trying to come out
