The weekend of the 22nd got a call from one of the lottie holders asking us if we wanted some manure so went over on Saturday and shifted almost a ton of it, in the hot sunshine, it was steaming so were we. Left the lottie that weekend after also having weeded and strimmed,it looked very orderly and neat.
All last week weeded, dug and planted out pots and hanging baskets, and mowed lawns at our home garden, ready for our sons 30th Birthday BBQ in the garden. Put a tent up, cooked loads of food and had a very jolly time. Chilled out yesterday. Today had torrential rain and popped over to the allotment, just to look at it. Expected to see it still being neat and lovely, but with all that rain and a week of neglect, grass had regrown and tiny little weeds up all over the place. Couldn't believe how overgrown it looked. So dry weather willing, over again tomorrow to catch up. Don't know how you working people manage, particularly with children to look after. You are super humans! ;D busy_lizzie
