You're wasting your time fighting that one. on one hand A fantastic oppourtunity for the nation to celebrate the age of steam with a one off national museum and on the other a group of aging allotment keepers trying to wangle a few quid out of the council for giving up their allotments. I've a great idea give the 100 jobs being created to the hippies (after much scrubbing and cleaning) so they can earn a living for a change :hide :proff :green gri

Well, we had a great turn-out (about 20 bikes, plus Andres in the car), probably the best ever, and it was really good to see everyone :thumb2

You've got the best sat-nav (2610), what more do you need..? :D
 
Or to the 'Jam Cafe' across the road, where you can mix with the local Trustafarians :eek:
 
I was amazed how quiet it was around there for a Saturday morning ;)

A nice spot for sure :beerjug:

That's an awfully poor generalization and slur Rob, I thought you were better than that :augie

We are not 'fighting' this, we are just trying to get a fair deal. The GCR and Leicester. City Council are being very secretive about the whole thing and upsetting a lot of people (hippies and otherwise) with their cavalier attitude. Allotment land is protected by statute. LCC and GCR need to play nice. So far they're not :mad:
 
Great gathering and scran BTW :clap and the weather was particularly clement, Looking forward to the next one!

Here's some photos from my daughter Georgia (14), who's just started getting into Photography...
