Sorry not been in here for a while, but had some news that I just had to share!!
OMG!!!!!!
The results of the Trafford Allotment Judging Competition for our site have just been announced, Pat (our fellow beekeeper and site secretary) just rang, there's 3 plots who received a Commended, 4 plots who got a Highly Commended, and 2 plots who got a Very Highly Commended.......... plots 1 & 2, or for those not in the know, both of our plots!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its almost as exciting as when in December 2006 I was made MOM on another forum that I know some of us here used to frequent! Lol!
Plot 1 - Very Highly Commended!
Plot 2 - Also Very Highly Commended!! Mind you, its got a few more weeds since it was first judged! Lol!
We both hoped that this year we'd be able to get at least a commended, as we've never got a certificate at all ever before, but neither of us thought we'd ever get one plot to a Very Highly Commended, let alone both of them!!
The prize is a certificate, a framed piccy of your plot and a presnetation from the Mayor of these at the Trafford Gardeners Evening in September! Only problem is I dont like having my piccy taken, and it will be taken with the mayor and then go into the local papers! Lol!
