    Went to the allotment sorting out wood board along front of plot where fences will go lots of digging drilling, mouth felling much better - so hammered my finger today not too hard

    The raspberry plants we put in the garden project have spread every where out side raised bed and onto path had to weed out

    It"s been a cracking weekend. Caught up with jobs in the garden. Plan to go to plot later to water.
    Think I'll sow more seeds, ready to fill gaps as stuff is harvested...

    Inspection happened on Thursday while we were there hope I have cleared my plot of pallets enough
    Been to the plot more digging done and planted cabbage given to me by a plot holder -, have got up some of my pallet fence along front of plot - 1st layer still to do one side 1st layer then to go get more pallets for second layer - still lots to do - collected some bark chippings and made a little path after digging

    Scroggin Got wet in that rain yesterday muddy horse poo boots - did you get the garden my harvest diary and are you filling it in?

    Gg. Sounds like you should pass plot inspection, you've done heaps. We have our plot inspection on Wednesday.

    Going this evening to start planting up GH.

    We've had a run of warm days so I've been to the plot to plant out.

    Picked first lettuce and asparagus this week. Rubarb is romping away. What are you guys picking....

    Some strawberries are in flower, and all my fruit trees have either blossoms or have blossomed. Have to wait and see if any will bear fruit...

    Will take some pics and try to post them...
