Welcome.

On 6th April 2007 a very small piece of lawn was dug up, and a raised bed was made. It was sown with a few rows of vegetables. Late in 2009 we gained an half an allotment (plot 54B). What happens next??

Happy Christmas to Our Reader

Does anyone actually read this drivel? If you do leave a Christmas message!

After weeks of snow, it was necessary to go to the allotment today and try and chisel out some parsnips for Christmas lunch. In fact with a lot of hard work we harvested parsnips, carrots, celeriac, and leeks. The ground was well and truly scarred afterwards ... we need new snow to hide the mud.

Being the shortest time of the year, snow, poor light etc, the photos from a phone are VERY black and white.
