We don’t often link to other people’s sites around here, but this item on plotters from the Guardian is well worth a look and great fun to boot. Looks like these plotters would fit right in around here!

Today’s Community Sunday saw our best ever turnout with plotters, volunteers and friends from the Macmillan and RGU plots all well represented. As a result we got a bucketload of tasks done on the wider site.
Sincere thanks to everyone who made it along and turned in such a wonderful team effort and to the bakers for the affa fine cakes. Gold medals all round!
it was great fun today joining the Macmillan team as they started work fencing off their plot and super to see the progress they have made this year.
We have our It’s Your Neighbourhood Competition assessment visit on August 18. All GFAA members are invited along on the day to meet with our assessors. We are hoping for a record turnout of plotters. Please come along if you can manage.
We have a power of work to do to have the site ship-shape for the visit and so we plan to have an extra Community Sunday session this coming Sunday – August 14 at 11.00 – 12.30. As usual it will be all hands to the wheel with good company to get things done and then a coffee and cake session at the Bothy to celebrate a job well done.
Please come along and help if you can spare the time.
I came across Sandy about to head home with this splendid cauliflower.
As I said to him, he is going to need a lot more cheese to go with this one!
GFAA were part of a Council group at the Duthie Park representing Aberdeen City in the Britain in Bloom competition today. Along with a dozen or so other organisations we were invited along to evidence gardening activities in the City. The judges were very interested to hear of the development of the Primary Plot, our activities with RGU, the planting up of the South Bank and our losing battles with the deer.
