The Quiz Results Are In


Drumroll... We have our first international winner in my Open Garden prize giveaways!

Congratulations to Amanda from Cooking in Someone Else's Kitchen - you've won this lovely necklace made by ArtistsGarden. I'll be in touch with you shortly to make arrangements for getting your prize to you. I'll also take it along to Sunday's concert just in case I bump into you there as I see you'll be in England then. I do hope we do get to meet - it would be lovely to see you and handover your prize personally.

Well done to everyone who entered - Threadspider, PatientGardener and Anna. You all submitted correct entries, but as ever it's the luck of the draw. Don't worry, there's still plenty more up for grabs. I'll be doing another quiz at some point as I put together far more than the 5 questions asked last week. Note, if last Friday's quiz is anything to go by, it's a good way of shortening the odds to win a prize! Also note, Amanda has made the chocolate cake featured in my Open Garden. Her version lasted a mere 20 minutes in her house...

And here's the anwers to the quiz:
  1. Q. What event was taking place when I started planting up the garden? A. Sydney Olympic Games
  2. Q. What's appeared on the allotment site for the first time this year? A. I accepted either Allotment People or Scarecrows
  3. Q. When is the Sing for Water concert in London? A. 14th September
  4. Q. What's the unusual ingredient in my chocolate cake? A. Mayonnaise
  5. Q. What does NAH stand for? A. Non Allotmenteering Husband

Hi, let's start a conversation - right here, right now! If you have a question, I'll also endeavour to get back to you over at your place.

My general policy re comments

I value genuine commenters for the conversation they bring. Those aiming to link back and give credence to commercial websites (thankfully rare) will be removed.

Blog posts are kept open for your Comments for as long as possible - for at least 3 months. I've reluctantly taken the decision if a post comes in for a sp@m attack after that time, I'll remove its Comments facility. I've found genuine comments are rarely left after 3 months, but dozens of sp@m comments are :( Removing these takes away the joy that a genuine comment might be left one day.
