Gardengirl , always a worry being broken into , some people on our site don't lock sheds , personally I like to make it as difficult as posable , that's just me we have written post code on everything
Ginagibbs , hope you do well , it is nice to have good work noted , best of luck
was not going to go to allottment today but might have to water yesterdays seeds as it had been a another really sunny day
Called into allottment on the way home , from meetings in Boston but also got some spray for marestail , then to a wood yard for some wood to make a new raised bed and did a bit of watering
just having a drink in garden , thinking about a bit of dead heading , another nice sunny day
GWRS I was thinking make it as difficult as possible with the shed not sure now, they did say to write on things with permanent pen your plot and the site name
With your wild flower is that the dried plants in the back ground of the dahlias they are corn cockle - what is going into your new raised bed?
Zoomer44 open garden sounded nice
Ginagibbs great pic of your allotment, good luck with the awards
still waiting on who had the best plot on the allotment site that entered theirs in, it cost them a £1 to entre - they did not have the results at the show so going to do it at a AGM meeting in Sept - what a long wait, I wanted to find out who it was but the results were not in yet
Just picked my first red tomatoes , still not many turning yet
went up to allottment and burnt the corn cockle , raspberry canes and pulled up some weeds ( on last bed still to have final dig ) and put those in fire bin left them smoking
just about to sort out some potatoes that I dug up earlier this week Maris Piper
Hi Garden Girl, awards not till November at allotment association meeting and dont know if they let on any earlier, such a long wait so will put it out of my head till then!
Went to the plot last night to pick some courgettes and eggs,, thought there would be no one there as it was almost dark but there was another family doing the same! nights are drawing in too soon

Hope you win a prize Ginagibbs. Let us know how you get on
Went to Gresgarth Hall open garden day yesterday. The garden of Arebella Lennox Boyd, love the way she has grown her fruit tree's in the veg garden.
Went to water the GH on plot. Picked some Tom's and courgette's. Lots of runner beans now.

Gardengirl , not sure yet what will go in raised bed , soil a bit sandy so will be adding compost to beef it up
Could not remember what wild flowers where , so thanks for that
all my garden books packed away in conservatory as we are going to repaint it soon
Went to the plot today and took more flag stones.
Picked Tom's, lettuce, my first aubergine, pulled up the onions and have loads of runner beans and dwarf French
As I clear stuff was going to mulch the soil and cover some area's for next Spring.
