Allotments 4 All

lots of precipitation  in the east  ;)

Finally just about stopped raining. I guess planting the overwintering onion sets will have to wait til next weekend.

Got lots of cooking done though (it just seemed like that sort of day) so it will be good to get home from work in the evenings and all I have to do is decide what to get out of the freezer and heat up.

Like midsummer in Edinburgh. I've weeded leeks and autumn onions - just starting to show green tips - and planted my Early Wight garlic. Then started to lay a new path along by the fence - cleared the weeds, lowered the level and laid down weed fabric. Cut all the grass paths too. I'm changing the paths by the fence to fabric and woodchips to try and lessen the weeding. Not enough time to fetch barrowloads of woodchips today so that will be a job for next weekend, weather permitting.

The midges were out in force! :o :o :o

it is that grawc, was up the plot this morning putting in my spring cabbage etc (probably the totally wrong time to it lol) got the back garden cleared up a bit.
was going to plant my garlic but didnt get round to it - might do it tomorrow weather depending before i head to work
starting to get a bit chilly now - but after all its october lol

Ick and wet and rubbish. So been tucked up on settee with sore throat and a REALLY irritating cough feeling sorry for myself!  :(

Last two days have been lovely and sunny 8) after a cold start.  ;D ;D ;D

Started to rain yesterday about mid day and is still wet cold and windy today. :'(

Crappy rain yesterday,  :(much better today.  8)         ;D ;D ;D

Agree, yesterday was so miserable in Enfield and it was the firework display in the evening in the town park.  I must admit I didn't go went to bed early and read my book.  Feel sorry for the families that dragged their children around in the rain. Better today, warmer but still wet under foot at the allotment.  Hate these dark evenings.  Been pretty quiet this year so far firework wise, see what happens on Wednesday night.

ITS been a beautiful sunny autumn day.  no wind. just sun.

:D :D

Still wet n windy in Notts  :(

Lovely day here, managed to get to the allotment for the first time in ages and even took m coat off whilst I was there! Now have a huge sack full of weeds to show for it and the plot is looking cared for once again.

Brought home the last of the butternut squash and glad to see the leeks are coming on a treat.

Chilly and overcast. Little or no rain today but ground very wet from yesterday's downpour. Got very muddy as soon as I stepped off my bike.

Grey n drizzling.

grey to start with, but the sun came out about two hours ago, so i'm smiling :D

Grey and icky! Someone pass the light box!
