Great shop for gardening stuff.....bought some seed potatoes a couple of weeks ago. Pentland Javelin, Early Crop and Maris Piper, Main crop. They're currently in my kitchen and I look at them daily for evidence of green shoots!

Then today I bought a mini greenhouse. I've had one before and know they're not brilliant for for a tenner who cares! I just dont want seed trays all over my house on window sills. Oh to have a proper greenhouse in the garden again one day!

Christmas gifts...

How rude of me not to post Christmas goodies....
Here goes:

Quick visit after the stormy weather

Had a quick look at the allotment today whilst on a bike ride.  A shed opposite me has blown down partially blocking the car park.  Mines still up and no damage to anything.  Garlic growing well. Took up a Christmas present too... a zombie gnome.  Too funny! 

Rain stopped play

A quick hour at the Lottie.  Another bed weeded and manure spread. Dig up a couple of parsnips too... thx to the previous tenant!  Will be on tonight's dinner plate.....

Friday.. Thirteenth!

Unlucky for some perhaps but planted the strawberries today and guess what?!  My garlic has popped up some nice green shoots! Thank you very much��

Strawberries

My strawberries from Marshall's arrived today.  Hope to plant this week weather permitting!

Another bed....

Two more beds weeded this morning.  Not many to go now!
