Wow Rhona you've fell on your feet there, looks fab! Shed, fence, path, not overgrown, I'm jealous! I want a camping stove for my plot, where's the best place to get one?????

Looks fab rhona, so jealous that you have a shed, we cant' have them on our plot and huddle under a tarp when it rains.

What is that round topped thingy about 3/4 way up the plot almost in line with the edge of the shed?

[HayleyB]

It is lovely Rhona, and they even included a plant pot/barrow for you, the shed is really sturdy looking - bet you can't wait for spring

Rhona that's marvellous, wish we could have a shed!

Just don't overdo it, or your body will prevent you getting back up there as often as you wish! I set myself a limit of 90mins a visit. Mainly though because I can only get up there at weekends until the light nights return and also because I only took mine over at the start of November and so there is a lot of clearing and digging and my back aches if I do much more! Mind you, my plot is less than half your size (8m x 6m).

Try and take a photo once or twice a week so you can remind yourself how far you've come, it's really motivational.

Enjoy it, the rewards are huge.

[Flummery]

It looks just the job - a nice size too.

Looks great! I'll echo what lumpyjumper says there - I didn't do it, and now regret it. Not that my veg plot looks anything marvellous yet, but it used to be a field and now at least looks like a garden!

Have fun!

It looks perfect, Rhona. Well done!
