Despite listing all the seeds and sorting by month and variety/type when I came to sow the leeks today two packets were virtually empty so I'll be off to get some more!  :-[

Community Building completely burned to the grond by arsonists, damage running into over £110k, my allotment shed ramsacked and tools and personal items stolen.
Crops stolen and damaged, plot flooded, Alium leaf miner on the increase, carrot fly, potato blight, hungry hoards of Pigeons. Wind damage , frost damage, and guess what........

I STILL CANT WAIT TO GET GROWING...... ;D

Think i am a saddo too. Yesterday was so wet after Saturdays rain but i went to my plot and FINALLY made a start. I am no longer an allotment virgin as i broke my first stretch of soil and marked out my first bed. I'm glad i did too, as i was finishing a lady came to empty her shed as she is giving up her plot and said i could take the shed and bench she has there. So it was a really benefit going up there in the wet. Can't wait to really get going and start growing.  ;D ;D ;D ;D

hi Neil . I'm going to phone tomorrow and ask if i can. I've got nothing to lose as i've only just started. They might not let me have it until April though when the leases run out. In the meantime i'm going to put a lock on the shed, block up the window with no glass and pray. really looking forward to it all  :)

If they don't let you, make sure you take the shed before the lady leaves or they might not let you take it.

If they do, remember to ask the lady what she had growing where as you will be able to start your crop rotation off.

theres nothing like the exitement at the prospect of the growing season to come; i think we all get excitied about it, i know i do and this is my sixth year growing veg.  the first year can be a bit nerve wracking but the best thing is to just jump in with both feet and see what works and what doesnt. it will be different every year.  :)

I think that is what gardening is all about ... getting excited about what might be for the following season. I was gutted last year when at the beginning of the year someone told me we wern't going to have a good summer, it took the edge off the excitement.

This year is going to be THE year!!! Everyone send out positive thoughts for a GOOD summer!!  ;D
