I can't find it again, so it's probably been edited out of the wiki. But i did find the Wikipedia entry about allotments, and the stuff about the Russian equivalent seems to confirm my vague memories and what you describe for Vienna allotments: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allotment_(gardening)#Russia It's quite amusing to think of all the Russian oligarchs living in garden sheds on allotments. -- Paul
