Allotment Virgins... The story of Plot 13...

We'll be sorting it out over the weekend; the lady who owned it has given it up due to ill health and she just couldn't cope so it is quite weedy but nothing that we can't cope with. Not sure what we'll plant yet; going to see what others are doing. The people on the allotment seem really nice and friendly as it's only been going a year and everyone has been learning together.
This is going to be a family affair; I'm not doing everything by any means - we're going to get our 11 and 7 year olds to help too. They've been spending too much time on the iPad etc so I think this project will put pay to that!Flymarkeeteer: £168 and counting0 -

No queen of cheap, it's not me as ours doesn't have a greenhouse and patio.
I think we're heading over later today to make a start on clearing ours; am hoping this will be good for my weight loss as I put on well over a stone on some meds :eek: and want to shift it!Flymarkeeteer: £168 and counting0 -
