    There’s probably going to be a fuss in Reading as well. The council have just put out a consultation document about extending the Henley Rd Cemetery where there are allotments at present. They are doing the consultation years in advance and apparently the ground was always reserved for this purpose – also they describe what alternatives they have considered.

    We got a bunch of 130 year old vampire gardeners out here now?

    >We have also requested meetings with the landowner to understand why he wants the council to vacate the land.

    Presumably to build houses, I suspect.

    We need housing more than we need a free extended garden for old home owners.
