Hullo. I’m Mildew and I’m a person. I live in north London and have fun with compost and shoving random plants in pots. I used to have an allotment, but gave it up so I could go away on weekends and not feel guilty about neglecting it (I also let it get over-run with weeds, but the less said about that the better…)

Hi
Nice Blog. I know what you mean about struggling to keep on top of it all at this time of year.
Was wondering if we could swap site links - I have started up a little blog of my own recently and want to get some (select) links going.

Nice blog… I’m on the waiting list for Alexandra Palace allotment site, only 6 years left to wait… for now i’m having to make do with whatever space I can make in our garden without turning it into some parody of the Good Life!
I count myself lucky that there is a waiting list - many Harringey allotments have closed their lists, and Islington which i’m close to only allocate plots to Islington residents - bah.

Hullo, very nice to hear from you! links are swapped. Mentalfloss, are you by any chance a Crouch Ender? I was on the Ally Pally waiting list myself when I lived in Hornsey, that was about two years ago and there was a five to six year wait for me, so not a lot has changed! It’s strange because there are reports that Harringey have the most vacancies in London. I’m guessing they’re all over in Tottenham way. If you have a car, it might be worth seeing if Enfield council have any spare plots. I know my site has (I think) and I’m about a 10 minutes drive from Ally Pally (if that). There are a few sites around the Wood Green/Palmers Green border that may have spare plots. Let me know if you want some more information.
