The mountain has been conquered!

The dirt mountain is no more, I got rid of it all today. I'll get the rotovator again during the week and go over the plot again, before I do any planting. I think it might be mid April before I get anything into the ground anyway. :) The seed sowing did not get done, hopefully this will be rectified tomorrow night. x

Sowing my seeds

Hi there,

I was up early this morning, so thought I would take the opportunity to sort out the seeds that I have, ready for sowing. I have rather a lot, I do get carried away when I look in the shops at seeds. :-)

I am going to start sowing them tomorrow, probably just tomatoes and cress to start away with. DH is going back to work early tomorrow morning, so I will do it when he is out of the way. :-)

I'll get back to the allotment tomorrow to carry on with the dirt mountain, I won't manage today as DH is here.

See you later. x

New post for a very neglected blog!! I might as well try again, spring has sprung so maybe it's time I got a spring into my step. :)
I have exciting news, since the last time I blogged, I have got myself an allotment. How am I going to have the time to manage it I hear you ask??? I'll just need to make time. I am soooo excited about it. Here's a couple of photos to be going on with. This one is of the allotment on the day I got it late last year.


This one was taken last Saturday after I had rotovated it. I just have to deal with a mini mountain of soil that someone kindly dumped on it. Also need to get rid of the shed, it won't stand up for much longer. :)
This is a very exciting time for me, my blog is an ideal way to document my allotment. See you all soon. x
