  • What a lovely day! 

    I have been to both plots today, just to check on things at one and lay some cardboard down on the un-barked paths. At the other one, I have cut all the autumn raspberries down, carried on pruning the gooseberries- now it turns out there are SIX plants there! I also got some more digging done and without my big heavy coat on too! 

    Met some of the other plot holders today too, one guy next to us who was building a raised bed and let out a very loud noise when he bent down (!!) and then went to on draw attention to him doing it by excusing himself lol, and the rabbit guy, who clearly thinks of the fox as amost a pet! 

    Sowing begins this evening image 

  • Fruitcake - oh he was polite and excused himself, but how embarrassing that must of been

    I guess it must be that time that more allotmenteer's go to their plots and get going with the gardening - the plot holders before must of like gooseberries a lot

    enjoy your seed sowing
