I took over my allotment April last year with a friend. We dug it over, very heavy work as it's oxford clay. She has now decided to back out so the plot is now mine all mine.
I've tried posting this a cuppla times tonight, but with piccies and I haven't got the hang of that. My degree is in IT so I'm missing something. I will persevere, in the meantime you get a post sans piccies.
The lottie is 85' X 25', facing SSW down a slope. The top has a shed with a decrepid and unusable and unreparable "greenhouse" behind. The shed is actually brilliant, but is in the wrong place. Having had a critical look at it today, it's got to go. So the top 27' of the lottie is designated "Soweto" and has to go.
I'm now going to list the inventory, some things are not included as I can't reach them or don't want to try. There's plastic over some stuff that disintegrates on touch so I want something to put it in before I investigate further.
