Allotments in Leyland

[Ant]

By some miracle I have managed to bag myself one on St johns green!!

I wondered whether anyone else on here has an allotment in Leyland (or had one)

Pics would be good....

I used to play in those allotments as a whipper snapper ! No damage or harm was done but we constantly got chased off by the green fingered monsters ! That was 40 yrs ago now !

Where is St John's green Ant? I'm green now, with envy. I'd like one but the waiting list is horrendous.

Its just off Earnshaw drive, On the estate.

Its a bit weird trapped between the houses. You have to go up someones drive to get to the gate!!

No wonder I haven't seen them, google map search coming up.

We've done walks on a couple of footpaths which end up going through a corner of someone's garden. It does make you feel like you're trespassing, even though you know it's a right of way.

There's a right of way across our garden. At least the postman thinks so.

haha good one []

Are you doing a bit of home growing yourself then Noel?

[noel]

Greenhouse mainly Ant, tomatoes. I've stuck a few courgette plants in the flower borders much to wifey's anger but I've nowhere else to grow anything.
Got quite a few herbs growing and peppers as well.

I think courgette flowers look quite pretty and a bean wigwam looks glorious in flower. (Build one!) Tell SWMBO to think of the saving in the supermarket bill when you harvest your own crops - that should sweeten her up a bit.
