Bits of it all over the screen - bit scary really. :(

Yes, I had the same thing, but things seem alright again. It was only short lived.

Re: was i mad? ive ploughed half an acre

You are certainly not mad and by the sounds of it, you have a great canvas in front of you and can take all your time and enthusiasm and design a garden of eden with hedges and trees in the right places. If you ever find the time, go sapling hunting with the family and plant elder and all other kind...

Re: Going, going, gone (Human rights in the UK)

It is sickening. But these things are being arranged through new anti-terror legislation all the time. The government is scared of its own public. My husband has been recently refused a security pass to do gardening work on police sites (he has worked there for over 15 years). He was given no reason...

Hello. We have had our allotment for 5 years and we have a tiny shed on it. We are working hard to get a little bit of community spirit onto our allotment plots and for that purpose we are thinking of building a second larger shed/summerhouse that can hold a few seats and tiny table. We are thinking...
