Today I went to Dylways Garden to collect some hollyhock seeds. I came away with a lot more! But my goodness, what a garden! It's lovely. Even at this time of year when gardens, including mine, look terrible. The people in charge are putting in so much work to make this patch a little oasis of loveliness. And now they have a grant, thank goodness, and they are putting it to such good use.


I can only urge people who have the time to go and give a little help. Maybe just an hour a week. And you'll be fed and watered as you work! It's amazing what has been achieved. Community action at work! And something that could be achieved throughout the borough.

Thank you so much to both A and chris.

I appreciate your encouraging and supporting comments .

Yes we have achieved quite alot this summer even with just 4 or people popping in now and then.

It would be really appreciated if more volunteers cdould offer an hour here and there. we are trying to get winter growing up and running, I am looking for help to make a veg patch 9 by 3.5ft if any one can with getting it on its way That would be great.

Yes Anne I love sharing the plants I grow and we sell them cheaply too to raise more funds for next springs

Plants seeds/materials etc.

The funding will be spent to create a lovely seating /eating area and a nice dog Run fo the residents that have dogs, and some nice plants.

So yes even though summer is on its way out we are still out there trying to get a little more

done before the real winter days arrive.

If any one can come along and help out that would be great.

Free plants to all volunteers through out the year, and you shall be fed and watered as always whilst your here.


Hope to hear from some of you even if its for an hour only That hour is precious to us.

    • It's also worth noting that heat, direct sunshine and dehydration all exacerbate the effects of alcohol on the human body. So get yourself out there and get truly spangled at a fraction of the cost.
    • Common sense does not prevail. Keep saying things that need to be heard, whether some people are bored of hearing it or not.  
    • For clarity,  since the heat seems to be getting to people - my friends in Hampshire, Essex, Cornwall tell me that the same insanity is happening there - probably in other counties to! I have in the past seen adults walking last year with  young children with no hat or to the best of my knowledge suns-cream on and idiots in Dulwich Park allowing their children or who knows maybe it is the au pair or nanny taking the kids to the park when it is over 30 degrees.. I rest my case - doesn’t matter if you have 4 feet or 2 - 4 feet suffer more as generally have a coat and no protection on their feet / 2 feet at least have foot protection. Like I said, I am just joining  the conversation - everyone has a right to their own opinion. For all you know or anyone, if a person has taken a dump might have been unwell, couldn’t find toilet in time.. numerous reasons - mental health problems, homeless whatever. Not pleasant I agree, but get a pair of rubber gloves and deal with it. We all live in the same community and in this heat with kids about, would have thought plus flies etc - do it if you live on the same street or area / people just walk past I assume and god knows how long council would take to come.  Says nothing about human nature - not my problem… seems to be the way of the world in towns these days.   
    • I don't think it's just dog-owners who are half-wits. An actual human has taken a dump in a newspaper and left it lying on CP Road. Flies are having a field day. I ought to tell the council but pity the poor person sent to clean it up.
