    Brilliant Linz. Most inspiring. Can only get better from there. Now I wish I had bothered with some veg this year. Looking forward to seeing it progress.

      Thanks Rustler. It's not too late to get some fruit and veg plants bought in or even sow yourself, get a few grow bags from wilkos..Give it a go! I'm away for 2 weeks on weds and yet to pack so doubt I'll be able to do much to the new one before hand.. but still I can't wait to get stuck in on this one :)

              Aw thank you all! Really have missed going up there the last 2 weeks, my garden has gone a bit mad with all the rain so can't wait to have a check on everything up the plot later and see how it's growing. Going to try and get stuck in on the shared plot this weekend if there's not too much to do on mine :)

                  Thanks again @Snorky85 Had a great time! Went up for a nose earlier, 2 weeks of not weeding is a shocker! Slugs have had a good munch on my strawberries, didn't put me off trying one though :heehee: bloody lovely! A pumpkin has disappeared and my peas were all flopped over from wind, hey ho! Spuds and toms are flowering :yay:

                  The plot neighbour has dug one side of the shared plot over and planted it up already! He also put sticks in for my toms and has taken side shoots off for me, total gem!

                    Plot number 2 taking shape.

                    20170624_123621.jpg
                    One side planted up with spuds, Swede, broccoli and cabbage. The rest after the green nets is Mal's (plot neighbour) think he got broccoli, dwarf beans, spring onions and sweet potatoes.
                    My dad and I started digging over the left side, replanted raspberries and strawberries... totally wrong time I know.. Oh well.
                    Went home for food and forgot my phone when we went back up.. dug the rest over, will get a pic tomorrow.

                            Mal (and Pauline) started off to many things they did say go in the cold frame and take what you like, said thank you but I felt bit cheeky doing that so he's gone ahead and planted up more cabbage and sown beetroot and carrots.. not complaining :) still got a lil bit left to plant up.
