Allotment..

It's moving on, lease papers arrived Friday, we paid a visit this morning, and they've strimmed it !!



We'd been out at a car boot sale looking for tools of the trade, spades and 'stuff', but low and behold, hidden from sight pre strimming was a handy little cupboard left by previous occupant, complete with fork et al..

Suzie is a tad excited and wants to EAT OUR VEG NOW !!



I want to grow chard as good as this !!



Hey, Ho away we go....it's planning time, then round up time !!

An empty footie park....lots of work being done by keen volunteers...

Suppose I should try to post a pic a day - well when I learn how to use it properly and we've found a zoom lens I will!!

The Garden....

I love our place...gardening is NOT the highest item on my personal agenda (but probably higher than DIY...) and to have someone else cut the grass et al is ABSOLUTELY brilliant - BUT we do like our little plot of pots....

here's the 2009 version...


The shared courtyard...

Suzie...

We've some pretty lights..

last year tomatoes...this year sweet pepper and chilli!!

Strange colour outside...




So, where's all this global warming then?  

Here we were expecting good old England to be as balmy as the Med in a few years - you know, brown slopes and olive groves - long warm autumns....RIGHT!!!

but..according to the The Telegraph, it's good for us...
