    I am sorry it has been a while since my last post but i have struggled with photos on here and been really busy on the allotment and working. Lots of progress has been made. I will post some photos of the before and current photos now to show people who might not have followed from the beginning.

    Just spent ten minutes trying to post about 20 photos and it wouldn't let me. It wanted me to select a category on this post? But I couldn't then it didn't save it.
    I will try another time.
    What has gone wrong with the forum? It worked well before Christmas and I don't like the new layout

    Hello Cotty, just caught up with this (over from the starting a nursery thread). You have done a tremendous amount of work, makes me feel tired just reading about it!

    Thanks. It is still evolving with lots happening. Working 6 or 7 days then finding the time to work on there is tiring, but i look forward to it and am planning things in my head all the time. It has improved my metal and physical wellbeing. Hopefully that will continue, if all my seedlings die then I will be upset and start to comfort eat

    It has been a busy month on the allotment. I am going down with my family later. My girls,10 & 7, are going to be helping me to pot on seedlings.I will take a picture of them in action. 
    I have installed this system to gather rain from the houses beside the plot. Hopefully it will work!

    It looks amazingly organised! I love the poly.

    My parents bought both! They have been well and truly bitten by the gardening bug. They look younger and are so much fitter coming down here about 4 times a week. Can't keep them away!
    The polytunnel is a God send. A great place to sow seed and store things. I would recommend one to anyone with space
