  1. Oh no! We're at the END. Now what?
    Your drawings are utterly charming.

  2. thank you again Sue for your encouragement. Yes the alphabet has finally come to an end after an embarrassing amount of time. The original idea came from Susy at Chiotsrun.com, via Nic at nipitinthebud.wordpress.com. Apparently Susy did her whole alphabet in one month - very impressive! I hope she did not have to resort to as much artistic license as me. As to 'Now what?' well possibly not international fame and success but there is my self published book, which you can preview by clicking on the 'My Books widget' and also an ebook version available for ipads etc. which is all very new to me. Perhaps one of these will catch the eye of some visionary publisher and it will lead to something interesting but I'm not holding my breathe. In the meantime seedlings must be planted and the blog must go on!

  3. Zentastic!! I've so enjoyed your wonderful drawings Greg. They were funny and totally captured the life and times on an allotment. Good luck with the book. Looking forward to your next venture!

    1. thats a very nice (zentastic) thing to say! Even though its taken a while I've also enjoyed doing the various posts despite getting a bit stuck on x and z. There are so many interesting aspects/angles to allotments that (putting aside the later part alphabet ) its not really difficult to get inspiration.

  4. Oh My Gosh! I missed so much. The last one I saw was Polytunnels! I am a bit behind. I will have to look and relish one a day that I missed. I love love love them all. I just ordered my very own copy of the Allotment Alphabet! I am SO excited! I will be able to look at the all the time. THANK YOU!
