Don’t lose the plot!
The first plot inspections of 2017 will take place in the first week of April.
Greenhouse for sale
An 8ft by 10ft Eden greenhouse is on offer for £100. It comes with spare glass and accessories. If you are interested please ring 01304 832944 (Shepherdswell).
Fire and water
British Summer Time comes into force this Sunday which means that the earliest time you can start a bonfire at the allotments will be 4pm.
But if you’ve got anything you want to burn you’d better hurry up as the allotment rules say that bonfires are not allowed at all from April 1 to September 30.
As another sign that winter is finally over, the water at the site will be switched on on April 1.
That’ll be the day
Thursday June 15 will be the day to go to see The Buddy Holly Story at The Marlowe Theatre, Canterbury.

Gone awol
The association’s rammer, used for hammering posts into the ground, has gone missing. If you have borrowed it or know where it is please email pearlygran@yahoo.co.uk
Grassed up!
It may not look much now but a small working party has finished preparing the area by the large container and has sown grass seed there ready for the barbecue season.
