I trust you posted a view at the end of the article, I complained about veg growing coverage and the battle to get Big Dig back on.
PS Looked back later and they hadn't posted my comment - I wonder why?

I`ve just read the article and must say that it is rather annoying 
. The picture of the woman digging in high heels - most of my female friends hate high heels at the best of times. My 20 year old boots due the job perfectly well. Why does it have to be about "Women" or Old men" - why not just "people" who enjoy it and take an interest in what they are eating. I for one have never been "hip" in my life so why I should be now I have an allotment ..... ?
As for the "green gym" - what a load of .....Cant people just go out and enjoy the activity and fresh air without having to pay money to join a club with a fancy name?

Ditto.
Do not put off thanking people when they have helped you, as they may not be there to thank later.

Hi Geoff, I didn't, but I will now, if they'll let me! I was away for the weekend, so they've probably closed the forum now......
