I am your humble servant....

The Queen has gotten herself an allotment! It's in her back garden at Buckingham Palace. So very proud of you Mam, I curtsy a hundred times over.

Yippee and Rule Britannia/Allotments Rule!!!

  1. Do you think Prince Charles had some influence -- or perhaps it's because our White House has a garden? What do you think? Janet

  2. Yes, I heard that on the news and grinned broadly too! Actually I was more surprised that they didn't grow veg at the Palace already. No doubt they grow it at the country places, but the gardens in London are huge too.

  4. Islandgardener - I'd like to think Charles had been whinging at his Mother like a teenager for ages about this and has finally got what he wanted! More likely though it is a mixture of publicity stunt and the new young gardener worker there. The Obama's probably did have something to do with it now I think of it. I still can't believe Michelle touched the Queen on the back - not the done thing but she got away with it!

    EB - I reckon they do grow their own up in Scotland etc. Maybe they have just learnt from us that Allotmenteering Rocks?
