watered (everything was bone dry this morning) and planted some tomato seeds. Got to tidy the shed soon, I can't find anything in it!  :blink:

Do we share a plot? 

Mine was watered four days ago by hand and now needs another splosh.
My shed is also in a muddle.

Very frustrating    can't do anything yet .....

Thrift - just keep reminding yourself that once your knees are better that you will be able to do so much more than in the past.

You're quite right Springlands. I had a bit of a setback with infection but am back on course now. The doc was talking about doing the other one soon so it would be good to get it all over and then would really be superwoman next year. 

Hope your pains are not too bad in this damp weather. Rosemary

Sorry to hear about the infection Thrift - but good that your are in the mend. Pains are OK except that I sprained my ankle recently and that is restricting me a bit - but getting better at last.

yesterday put some maincrop spuds in and today put 3 rows of peas in, checked stuff in greenhouse and watered then did some more weeding. Was going to go back but am going to put my feet up

Sometimes just putting your feet up is good - you can think of all of the hard work that you have done so far.

Peas,lettuce planted.  Emptied my old shed and took it down.  Had a massive 'new' one delivered (recycled garage) that Chris, his mate and me had to cut down an re-erect.  Now decided to use my old shed as a potting shed as its only 3 years old and i just need to put another window in.

Roof on 'new' shed goes on tomorrow and woodburner installed 

Shattered!

Today I just went and sat on my bench and looked at my plot.   

I did pick some rhubarb, cut off the leaves and shove them (the leaves) in one of the water butts to use for watering the cabbages.

I also looked at the shed and thought about tidying it.  Then I went and sat on my bench again and thought about tidying it some more.

Maybe I will tidy it this weekend.............................

quick visit, did some digging and had a quick hack at the weeds on the undug section, then home as the weather was just starting to spit with rain.

removed all the tussocks of grass from the allotment - only had it two weeks. Most of it still needs digging but when you can't see great big weeds it looks better

I had a go at the weeds and build a wigwam for my runner beans and French beans looked at the damage the mole had created and left in a huff as we have just tackled the rabbit problem by fencing off the plot so the next thing is getting rid of the mole.
