Having just received my email newsletter from Wiggly Wigglers, I spotted this little item at the bottom of the page

" At 7.30pm on Friday October 10th we are hosting 'An Audience with Terry Walton' at our local village hall in Preston on Wye. Tickets cost £7 each and all profits will go to charity. There will be local food on sale and a bar. If you would like more details or tickets please call 01981 500391. "

I don't have the vaguest idea where this is, but I'm sure someone on the forum must be local. :wink:

Are you really asking that Alan? Terry Walton has 2 allotments in the Rhondda - used to be 10 - and is on the Jeremy Vine radio 2 show - usually on Fridays. His book, "My life on a Hillside Allotment" is well worth reading both for the gardening tips and the social history of South Wales - useful information for Gogs when they come down south!
