What I intend to do today or tomorrow number2

[Penellype]

Busy week, but today I managed to get to the allotment and made a start on cutting back the buddleia, which is not in the flooded part of the allotment. Also cleared some leaves, harvested a carrot and the men came and replaced the garden fence.

No gardening time tomorrow.
