Hi Neighbours
As we are going to be shifting to a property that doesn't have enough room to park our caravan, we are looking for somewhere to park it (unoccupied) when we are not using it, which is perhaps two or three time a year.
At it doesn't have to be under cover, we are hoping somebody in the northwest has a bit of spare room on their property that could be put to good use.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please call me on either 359 1999 or 0276828820.
Many thanks.
Ken.

Then everything stopped. The grass on the banks got longer and longer and people could not enjoy walking there. The grass got so long a request to have it cut was sent to the Council, who sent someone to cut it. A neighbour seeing the result took it upon himself to tidy the area himself so that people could again enjoy the area. The community appreciated what he did and a local organisation bought him a new lawnmower to make his work easier. One day after a number of years the Council sent some people to build a stopbank. After a few weeks of work, they left, leaving a pile of dusty soil with sides too steep to mow with a lawnmower (if they had planted any grass) resulting in a magnificent display of weeds.
The neighbour became disheartened and very disappointed. How is he to fix it so that it looks again like a Garden City we live in instead of an abandoned allotment?
Any ideas on how to make this sad story have a happy ending?
