Starting to Grow......



I have an allotment - hooray for the good life!

A year ago I moved to a new flat - social housing for Old Gits. I wasn't unhappy to be moving out of a damp studio flat with nosy landlord and landlady, but I have been missing the outside garden space there.

Now I have some outside space all of my own - well, all of the Parish Council's. And I have been given a small shed which a kind friend has erected for me today while I was out at work. It just gets better.

I must admit that the weather hasn't been ideal for allotmenteering. Now that the rain has stopped the heat has baked the top layer of the soil to a solid crust.......and as for the slugs......

I'll post some photos when I get the film developed - yes, I am still using film!
