Past Events: Interview with David Patmore (October 16th 2010)
Coffee on the Allotments
David is chairman of the Allotment Association. I met with he and his wife, Lynne, and a bunch of their fellow gardening enthusiasts, in what appeared to be their club-house where I was plied with coffee from the hands of the youngest member there, Joe, who does their barbecues and is a trainee chef! Throughout our time together there was a constant hubbub of background chatter and banter. When you get to the end of this interview you’ll see David’s comment about it being a community. I concluded it was clearly that already, not a mere group of individual gardeners! Happy reading!
