Remember the Manor Garden Allotments? it’s now a Mcdonalds

I was going to stay away from blogging about the ‘lympics and leave that to the other shed blog – but this photo on the Guardian hit home

You may remember a long while back there was a campaign to save the Manor Garden Allotments – which of course failed, well the plots and sheds of this great community was demolished to put up a fast food joint 🙁

anyway you can view the other shots of

London’s Olympic Park – before and after

As the 2012 Olympic Games get under way at last, see the transformation of the area around Stratford, east London, in the seven years since London won the bid to host the Games, by clicking on the vertical slider in the middle of the image and moving it left or right

BTW Iam going to watch the opening ceremony tonight only because Mud – tiger feet was leaked on the telly last night as one of the performances – but will still be thinking of the sheds on Manor Garden Allotments 🙂
