The Vegetable Games at the Maidenhall Allotments in Halifax Road have proved really successful. The Town and Bridge project is proving to be coming up with some very innovative ideas and the Community Garden which looked a bit out of place last year now looks like an integral part of the Maidenhall Allotments.

Ben Gummer was also there, doing the MP sort of things. What’s really striking is how many people he knows already. I got mistaken for his brother, twice. Now I have no problem with people thinking that I look like Ben, he volunteered for public life and insults are a new way of life for him. But his poor brother, what did he do to deserve the calumny?

If they do decide to hold this event next year it is a really good idea to go down.
