    Edd I thought it was you to start with building the shed but then realised you not near Roy

    Mitch78 I guess where the waiting list for your site was so long that the plot is not too overgrown like some, that the plots have all been tendered to more  

    Fruitcake are you going to do videos on seeds you got for growing - what sort of videos various content e.g. tours of your plots

    Zoomer44 that is what I like that allotment sites can be so different

    hope for a nice sunny weekend like it is here today

    Fruitcake - what seeds you will be growing?

    updates of your plots,

    what things you are up to,

    how the things you will be growing are doing,

    updates before and after bits if can  

    what is new - That is all I can think of if any of that helps 

    Edd they have updated the potato website for your area,  end of January 31st same day as mine will be
