Glad i have you guys...went to a talk last night put on by the allotment association and they were all talking about putting in potatoes this weekend except my immediate allotment neighbours...bless them!...who instead asked me how I'd managed to dig part of my plot when it was still so very sticky and wet. I then had to confess to the sandy patch 2m x 2m in the corner that makes everyone on my site soooooooo! jealous when they find out about it. Trouble is the weeds love that bit the most and i've spent 3 years trying to get the bindweed, nettle, hawthorn and blackberry out...i think it's ok now or i hope so as i have planted raspberries there.
