17th and 18th October

Yo!

Can't beleive it is middle of october already! Been digging again this weekend, took out my beans yesterday and have lots of lovely fresh seed for next year. My compost heap is looking pretty full so i think i am going to have to start a new one to make sure that the original one is rotted down in time for spring! I found a mouse in it too so i am a bit scared to go too near it again! What a daft jessy!

Bought home a couple of Savoy cabbage, yes mum one is for you, and another red cabbag, yes shelly that is so i can pickle you one specially.

Will has offered to level the ground for the green house and get that put up for me, and he has offered to get a fence put up at the front too! bless him, he has saved me about three years work!

Sorry everyone!

Well since the alst post willy has dug out all of the tree stups on the allotment, dug out the two large ponds, removed all the concrete chuncks and ahrd core that had filled them and generaly made himself vwery useful indeed!

And he showed me his putressing Eye socket this afternoon..........

He plans to dig my allotment for me then he'll rotovate it and if i want he will lay the path for me too!!! what a troooper!

Have the seed catalogues for 2010 and am happily planning next years crops, going to go for more sucessional sowing this year so i don't get gluts of different veg all at once!
