A big thank you to Nathalie for featuring me in the May edition of Woman & Home magazine. She came across my blog and contacted me quite unexpectantly, but it was lovely to chat to her about my allotment, what it means to me, why I do it, and how it all started.

I apologise for looking downright moody in my photo compared to the other cheery ladies. Because I normally avoid any photos of myself on my blog, I wasn’t able to provide one for the article. So on a freezing cold February day, while I was suffering from a cold too, I had to rely on John to take a half decent photo of me, while he ordered me to give my best Jack Monroe look. I’m not entirely sure what that is, or where he thinks this is leading!

Still, it’s a thrill in my otherwise non-eventful life.
