Carried on building my 8x10 polycarb greenhouse on my own.  Almost done, just the roof to do now.  I will never, ever, build another one.....almost lost the will to live trying to attach the ridge beam.

Going to be good fun when it's done though.  Hopefully finished tomorrow.

I'm actually just round the corner from you, in Leicester!

Not a bad assumption, then!

I already planned my allotment out and today i finally had some time to "try" and get rid of some of the grass. WOW WEEE there were a lot of stones. Does anyone have any idea on how to sort of get rid of them....

[grendel]

did, did and dig some more, I drag a bucket to drop any stones I find, and a second bigger one for weeds. they all get dumped under the pallet nest to my bench to keep the weeds down.

Shallots are now in on both plots and planted some Garlic that was going cheap!
The wildlife pond on the allotment site was teeming with Frogs and Frog Spawn was everywhere.
We gave up counting at 100

I built 2 raised beds (6' x 4.5') out of old pallets today and planted 12 strawberry plants in each.

I put my excess in a bucket (i.e. the very big ones) and either use them for drainage in tubs for my carrots or make paths with them !!

After cutting my finger the other day I managed 5 hours at the plot today..

Changed the leaking IBC valve then manured and dug a 4 mt x 2 bed  for some broad beans, early peas and also for my comfrey.. Then carried on with digging my next bed 4mt x 1 1/2 for the second half of my onions. It takes quite a while as there are soooooooo many roots to pick out.. Big perennials, couch and mares tail.   I have a pile of pallets to make a bonfire and burn all the roots I have collected lately - one wheelie bin full!!
