Tnis is a haphazard record of my two allotment plots totalling twenty rods and my back garden with its twelve foot by eight foot greenhouse. Sunday, June 06, 2010. Where to start on this catch up? How about at the front of Plot 18. To the left of that square of Sweetcorn is some Curly leafed Parlsey, beyond the next hurdle are some more Shallots and some dark purple Cornflowers, all planted out this weekend. The strip to the left has been weedkilled due to amounts of bindweed poking its nose out. Two row...

Tnis is a haphazard record of my two allotment plots totalling twenty rods and my back garden with its twelve foot by eight foot greenhouse. Sunday, June 28, 2009. Feeling fruity and catching up. The evening was so oppressive, weather-wise, that ended up dozing off after tea and went allotmenting around eight. Picked strawberries and raspberries, more raspberries than is decent from a few canes heeled in at random a few years ago, didn't touch the ones under netting and got two full nappy bags. Hoed all ...

Tnis is a haphazard record of my two allotment plots totalling twenty rods and my back garden with its twelve foot by eight foot greenhouse. Saturday, March 13, 2010. Another day off work to garden, but this time with sufficient showers to prevent allotment digging, well not prevent exactly, but enough to have made me soggy, muddy and fed up. Went compost shopping and bought three 120L general purpose compost bales and "four for three" 25L bags of topsoil . The topsoil was delivered straight to the a...

Tnis is a haphazard record of my two allotment plots totalling twenty rods and my back garden with its twelve foot by eight foot greenhouse. Thursday, August 20, 2009. Sunflower have either zoomed for the sky or snapped off, tallest is about eight feet and yet to bloom. The large bloom looming over the dog is over six feet tall and dripping nectar. The squash have spread magnificently and hiding under the leaves are a number of steel grey Crown Prince. The onion patch has now been cleared and hoed. Yeste...

Tnis is a haphazard record of my two allotment plots totalling twenty rods and my back garden with its twelve foot by eight foot greenhouse. Thursday, May 06, 2010. Lets try a different Android widget. This one seems better, but no direct upload of pictures from phone. Anyway, I've rebuilt and extended my shed so the dog and I can shelter from the rain. Planted out my brassicas, PSB, Summer Cabbage and Brussels Sprouts, also Sweetcorn. Yesterday I planted out about fifty seedling Shallots.

Tnis is a haphazard record of my two allotment plots totalling twenty rods and my back garden with its twelve foot by eight foot greenhouse. Monday, July 27, 2009. Off computers a bit. Off computers a bit at the moment, sometimes after working at a screen all day I end up in a mood for days where I just can't be arsed to peer at a screen again in the evening, so apologies for the lack of updates. Continue to be very enjoyable, steamed and buttered, mmmm. Dug some last week and my beloved cooked the l...

Tnis is a haphazard record of my two allotment plots totalling twenty rods and my back garden with its twelve foot by eight foot greenhouse. Sunday, October 18, 2009. Shameful really, but so what. Two days shy of a full month and here I am typing my latest timely blog update. Until the rain two weeks ago my allotments had set like the proverbial cement, little old 20st me jumping up and down on the blade of my spade and more likly to bend it or force my boot in half than to actually get it into the soil.
