Excuse me! - here's a real reason to party ;)

Lordy! 2012 is a huge year for the UK and at the moment it's all about the Queen's Jubilee; 60 years on the Throne deserves recognition and I am loving the extra long Bank Holiday ;) Soon it will be all about the London Olympics and the world will be glued to their TV sets, including me at times. BUT there is a big reason, a huge reason to celebrate and that is this......

.....we are into our 5th Allotmenteering Season!
Happy Allotment Birthday to 24a!

I just wanted to log on this evening and say a huge, massive thank you to each and every one of you who has followed our story so far. We have so much more to explore; Mother Nature has so much more to teach us and I personally have a lot more growth ahead of me. It gives me great pleasure and strength to think that you will join me and hopefully continue to leave comments. I can truly say that writing this blog and documenting the progress we have made has been life changing and I am rather excited to see what happens next.....

So in the spirit of celebration and in a sense, a bit of a deep and thoughtful reflection I have upgraded the whole kit and caboodle and I hope you like it. I love you all - I mean that from the bottom of my heart xx

    CONGRATULATIONS!!! Five years is a great accomplishment. I love that you write about all you've learnt -- from failures to successes to weather mishaps and hopes for next season.

    Congratulations to all THREE of you! The header is great too.

    Must admit though I for one am not looking forward to Olympic saturation. Hope the weather is kind and we can garden instead!
