HI Pete,

Thanks... Have been having a jolly o time in the garden.  Hope you guys are settling in well in your new home and gardens toooo!

I went to share my ooooby photos on a friend's FB page - via friend's private message and it seemed to take the link ok- within his message box - but when I go to click on that link to see if it works, an  ooooby page error comes up. Yet On my FB page it appears fine and the link goes to the ooooby photos.

Would love to share my ooooby album with a few folks..

Thanks.g

On one side, we have a large area of former rich alluvial farmland being scraped into shape for a new suburb. This will take advantage of the great train system we have here (I wish the developers could be asked to restore a similar area of arable land in another location).  The new station being built is on the site of what used to be a loading station for vegetables supplied to the city, in the early 20th century.

On the other hand, we have old farmers who are willing to give up some of their land for renting to local people for gardening. And no-one steals our vegetables, and the community tool shed remains unlocked at all times, day and night, and nothing goes missing.

Large areas of land continue to be stolen from the agricultural sector, in a country that is dangerously dependent on imported food - but the small things that matter to us everyday, like trust in our neigbours, have not yet been stolen.
