Well all I have to say is dig,dig,dig and more digging with a lot of sieving.
My plot is now half done but the weather has stop play, however did manage to get down there this morning and sieve the large pile I had dug out of the compost heap and covered to keep dry. So only half the main plot to go, just wish the weather give us a chance.

Ive said it once and ill say it again - MATTOCK! It really is the business for ripping out couch grass.
"If you want to be happy for a day, get drunk. If you want to be happy for a week, get married. If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, be a gardener." - Chinese proverb

i know there are different tools but when the going gets tough shouting "azada" as i dig is better that "mattock".
try it it's therapeutic.

Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older
