For all you folks who have just taken on or are thinking of taking on a new allotment that has not been worked for some time, take a look at my pics. I loved gardening and growing my own veg in the garden but it was to small, before my son was posted to Afgan he said ''get a hobby mum'' for me, and it was my god send while he was away. I took on my allotment at the end of 2010.

Having only just taken on our plot this month We have a lot of work in front of us.I havn`t done any proper digging for years, I dug this small area in 3deg but the digging kept me warm. I will post updates on our progress

Any body know how to up load pictures, for whatever reason mine is not highlighted so it won't allow them.

After taking up the Allotment late 2009, things were going well.
The Ground was taking longer than I thought, as there was so much rubbish dumped in the ground.
So I decided to do half, then work on the rest while the Veg I had planted was growing.
This is what was happening, until my life took a sideways turn, time was not mine, due to family Illness.

Very cold and tired today but we're slowly getting there! Making new friends too so enjoying the social element as much as the digging. Its really nice spending time with my hubby too doing something we're both finding rewarding, and mum came today too which was really nice but not sure she'll be thanking me in the morning!
