http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/6926021.stm is my source.

I quote from the BBC website a couple of sentences.

Please do follow the link for the full BBC story.

"Redbridge Council last night approved proposals to sell four sites within its borough which it hopes will raise about £25m for capital projects.

It promised new plots to owners who say they are not happy with the offer and who insist their plots are "thriving".

The plans need final approval from the Secretary of State for the Environment.

The council said many plots were unused and they were left with no other option but to raise the much-needed funds."

"The four allotment sites are New North Road, Vicarage Lane South, Fullwell Avenue and Goodmayes Lane."

"If the council's plans get government approval, the allotments could be sold in two years."

Any :roll: lucky :roll: tenants of Redbridge on the KG-Forum?
Do not put off thanking people when they have helped you, as they may not be there to thank later.
