Allotments 4 All

My pests came back this time they managed to destroy one of my polytunnels, and trample the strawberries.

I have just finished rigging trip wires between the raised beds, it might annoy them and I expect the will take their revenge but at least I'll have got mud on their designer label jeans!!

Photo's of the damage at www.plot76.info

And I though having an allotment would be relaxing, and rewarding, so far it's been expensive and disappointing.

Ho hum!!

defenitely vandals?, we had one go the same, a neighbour told us it just went with the wind, I was all for stringing them up until he came over, sad, that you've worked so hard, hope your luck changes  :)

That's terrible plot76 >:(. Very sorry you have had the same sort of problem so soon after the last time. Keep going, stick them out ;) :).

They do tend to get bored with it.... only if they are stealing power tools will they keep coming back at abouit a months interval to take the replacements!
>:(

That reminds me of the recent damage to a polytunnel belonging to a neighbour. That appears to have been deliberately targeted at plots involved in a dispute a couple of years back.

Although i dont have an allotment,we have our own veg garden etc ,i must admit i do feel for you nothing seems to be safe in this world of ours,if i lived near you i would gladly come and give support :o :'(

so sorry to hear of your troubles.........we have the same here.tho hopefully it will change with the new fencing!
if they wanna get in tho ive a feeling that they will.
brilliant blog thingy tho.......a question............have you planted the beds with a "green manure"?
just wondering....and if so.what is it?

Hi Plot76 you have worked so hard - the little b-----ds what a shame the cannot be hung up it must be so frustrating after such hard work..

Hold Hard Plot!
I think Manic could have a point - and i hope he has, rather than some sh*tbags!
Wind damage? You have a wonderful & well organised plot.
