I have decided, and persuaded the rest of the family, that we want an allotment. Friends have given us fresh veg from their allotment this year, and we spent time at my brother's house, where he has a substantial vegetable plot and all this has fuelled my enthusiasm.
Accordingly, I rang the council and put my name down for several sites within striking distance from home and then went to visit them all. The lady at the council was very nice but did say there was a waiting list at all the sites. I was disappointed but undeterred.
My husband, son and I spent a morning visiting local allotments and this only made us more excited about the prospect of having our own plot, but so far nothing has happened.
