That would be great, Fiona. There's only me on from 4 -5, so especially helpful if you could be there then. From 5 - 6 it's me and Caroline, if you feel like staying on after 5.

Thanks Nilufer. I have written you in to be there from 1.00 p.m. Tickets come from the flower shop in Salusbury Road... Maggie

Hi Nilufer! Great that you can come along next Sunday. Would you be able to join Ian and Julienne at about 1.00 o'clock? Then you could get involved with the compost bin building as well as talking to people about the pleasures of the allotment? Maggie

Thanks for sharing this information, Kate. I am working all day Saturday but if anyone else would like to know more, he/she could leave a comment + perhaps a phone number for Kate on the comment board?

Hi maggie, i have found out there is another chance to see the gardens on sat 14th meeting at 17 honiton rd at 315 pm. That is Martin stoffords garden and there were also a couple of free tix made available to our group, so I wondered if we could somehow share them?
Thanks, Kate

OPEN GARDENS DAY

Looking good now...

1 - 2 Ian

1 - 3 Julienne

3 - 4 Kate

4 - 5 Maggie

5 - 6 Caroline

I have put myself down for 4 -5 as that was the slot that wasn't covered but I will be there at other times too, on and off.

Jenna has posted to say she is away.

Fausto, Claire, Alex, Fiona - are you around at all to join in? (Apologies if you have already posted. It can be hard to keep track.) It would be nice to have even more people so that there can be some doubling up ... more fun than being there on our own.

I think it's a great idea (thanks, Julienne) to work on the compost box project when we're not busy talking to the people who come around. The only problem is if Ian can only be there from 1 - 2, as (speaking for myself) I don't have the relevant tools or expertise.  Can you post your thoughts Ian? Maybe you can stay longer or maybe you can set the work in motion and leave Julienne with clear instructions as to how to continue?

For those of us who also want to visit other gardens and studios, tickets can be bought from a number of places in Salusbury Road, including the flower shop. No free tickets I'm afraid - probably QPARA needs the ticket sales to cover the costs. The tickets are £6, which seems very reasonable considering what's on offer.  

I've set some questions as part of the children's treasure train and will be at the allotment in the morning to set things up and put up balloons and so on. I'll do a separate post about the children's questions when I've worked out the final details.

Thanks again to all who have responded to the call!  Maggie

Hi maggie, am finally able to sign in. I can do 3-4pm on Sunday. Is it possible to see the other gardens too as we taking part? Thanks
