The Evening Standard's Homes&Property section featured an article 'This is the year of the Vegetable Olympics' on 11th January. Could this be a reference to the removed Manor Gardens Allotments or even to actual vegetable growers? No way! On the contrary, the long forgotten East End gardeners don't get a mention. Instead a brief pr splurge for the flower gardens, without vegetables, in the Olympic park and to chucking vegetables outside City Hall!

It's the Olympics, stupid!
