    put it in google map - its a website run by yahoo in your locality (there's a barnsley one) and people just give away free stuff.

    there's quite a few stories about people doing up their whole house etc by just using freecycle!

    i think you will find it quite useful.

    how much are allotments to rent generally, if you do notmind me asking?

    cheers

    I have been really lucky the councils have a long waiting time (apart from wath area) and i think they charge around 40 quid mark

    i got a private one for 30 quid a year and plan on getting the kids hands mucky to keep them busy!
