Cheers, just hooked up with the cafe at my work, and scored a daily supply of used coffee grounds for the next few weeks :)

Also on the look out for a local horse poo provider, lol

So, thankfully the evening stayed pretty dry, nice to get out and get some mroe graft done, worked out we've done about 18 hours of work on the allotment in the 6 days we've owned it

Well done!

At least if the weeds are that healthy the soil should be good!

Keep up the good work.

looking good stickmeup  8)  Before and after photos are a great reminder of how much you have done.

PS I can't decide whether the huts at the back are posh sheds or have you got a shanty town overlooking the plot?

You have taken a major project there - just looked at the diary pictures.  Well done with what you have done so far - you have done a lot of hard work. Welcome to the site
