Took down the supports in the greenhouse and forked over the GH bed - swept the benches and stored the garden furniture in the GH for the winter. Then helped OH to clean out the hens and ducks.

Removed my greenhouse from the roof and got out all the planks and poly-carb roofing I've been collecting  ready to transport to the plot tomorrow with my sons big trailer.

That's sounds a very good use of both the allotment and the hour!

Busy morning today.... Phew...

Borrowed my son and his car transporter trailer.. Blagged / collected  15 building site fencing panels and some concrete fence posts. Then loaded my greenhouse and to the plot we wented. He also brought a 1 tonne bag of horse poo for my compost heap.

Happy bunny today.        ( but... I forgot to take photos of the loaded trailer!!)

yesterday I was given a whole bundle of old seeds by a work colleague, he had a whole big cardboard box full - all due to go out of dat at the end of this year, well I am willing  to give them a try - £100 worth at the prices shown on the packets.

Nothing to lose. All to gain, I think.
A nice little present.
Hope it goes well.

Temperature dropped quite a lot here, so it's time to tidy up beds and plant winter cabbage. Was little bit sad to pull and chop self-planted tomatoes, but i don't have green house at moment Another lost - strawberry - 4 out of 40 survived No idea - was it very hot or high acidity of soil or something else. Removed old basil plants and picked some of their leaves  - will make them dry. Transplanted chilli peppers into 20l plastic bucket. Tomorrow will try to transplant 2 piman(local variety of capsicum). They still have lots of flowers, so have good chanes to have them fresh over the winter, if keep them in the house  Dug little bit compost pile, which i made in the spring(shredded thin branches, leaves, weeds) - perfectly decomposed and have dark chocolate color

The joy of an allotment.

It's what I like when I'm there, master of you're own world.

Yesterday, I finished laying the flag pathway. Finished digging and removing as much couch grass as I could. Nothing left to do except keep an eye on the place and remove any weed that dare to show up!! I can now concentrate on the upcoming winter festival season.

Sun shining, birds singing. It's time to do some landscaping 

[dexyblue]

Went yesterday, not been on a regular basis since Dad took ill in September and now on the spiral of hospital, Dr, clinics etc.
I have missed the latest delivery of manure so looks like my beds wont get their manure this year. Stated on the greenhouse interior clean out 

[Thrift]

Cleared the remains of the bean plants and a few weeds.

Looked around the flower beds. All rather confused really ..... the wallflowers are in bloom and the aubretia is fresh and green and abundant after it's haircut. I'm sure they all think spring has arrived.
