Preston?! Your mate in Oldham has been offered a plot in Preston?! How


No he's in Preston. I'm in Oldham.

crazy is that. But you still have the right to an allotment. If you
have the energy to look into LA's inconsistencies, promesses and
bureaucratic mayhem, have a look into the National Society of
Allotments - and set up your own allotment if needs be. All you need
to start is 6 people with as much as energy as you have and some land.


Now this intrigues me. There is a bit of land very close to us which
would obviously eliminate travelling! I reckon I could get 6 people
off my street interested - but it can't be that simple. (I know one or
two are already keen)



Nothing is impossible. Nothing!
