Spouse has done three things that are out of character this week.
1. He has bought me 'The Great Vegetable Plot' by Sarah Raven when it's not my birthday / anniversary / Christmas.
2. He has finished off the greenhouse without being nagged.
3. He has sponsored Simon the marrow on www.justgiving.com/plot21
I suspect a new guitar is imminent.
Reading the Great Veg Plot has inspired me to order a greenhouse full of Jiffy 7s, small expanding pots which I had never heard of before this allotment. According to the blurb, 'No other growing media provides as many advantages as the Jiffy 7'. I hope to grow some jolly good tomatoes then.

There have been even more than the ones mentioned but several blogs only last for a few months then I assume thet either give uo their lotties or are too busy to blog!!!
Thanks for the list Jean, the weather is so grotty today that we won't be doing much, I will go to all these sites and see what other lotties are up to at this time of year. Can't wait to get planting!
