    Gg. GH is an old one. Didn't get time to put it up last yr. Was going g to level an area and make a base with flag stones.

    Was thinking of sowing some chilli seeds this month, when do others sow chillies?

    Went to the allotment today check around the plot the plastic tarpaulin roof on the shed had some time blown up and covered more of porch and the wood posts moved on top,  got rather wet trying to move roof a bit  - it was so wet at allotment lots of puddles, broad beans have perked up 

    Scroggin thanks to your suggestion we had an email from the allotment and they are going to stock green debris netting in the shop 2 metres wide for £1.00 a metre

    We had some snow as raining in day did not lay for long
