You must have a nice friable soil if you have only started digging. My allotment is very heavy clay so if we dont dig in autumn/winter to let the frost get at it, life would be very difficult for us. good luck  :lol:
I used to work in a helium gas factory, but I walked out, no one talks to me like that.

Wow dibberman - looks like you got lots of digging done. Went down to our allotment to dig, but found the roof had blown of the shed ( :evil: ), so ended up sorting that out instead. What are you planning on putting in your plot?
Where abouts in Northants are you? I lived on Oxfordshire borders for first 20 years of my life.

Quite exciting starting on a new plot. I have one bed that had a bit too much clay in it and the lady at the garden centre gave me a bag of grit to help it along.
Just starting to grow veg this year in four raised beds at home.
