Six weeks on and things are progressing nicely
I have now had Plot 6 for almost exactly 6 weeks and a lot has happened in that short time...
Thanks to my Father-in-Law Ernie I now have a shed to shelter when it rains thanks to Sally a waterbutt to collect rainwater from it's roof. I have lots of guttering ready to install on the shed but I haven't got around to connecting it all together yet.

...and so it begins
For some time now I have been thinking about getting an allotment near to home.
Up until a couple of years ago I used to farm a plot with a friend of mine, and I had a few raised beds and a greenhouse in the garden at home. When I moved in with my fiancée (now my wife!) we got a little westie called Dexter and it looked like my home vegetable gardening days were over. The plot had also proved to be very wet and difficult to get on at the beginning of the year which meant that we were perpetually trying to catch up, plus it was a 20 minute drive from home so was fairly impractical.
