Well I have been a bit lazy with my blog over the last few weeks - partly because not a lot is happening at this time of year and partly because of other issues. It is taking me a long time to fully recover from the Chicken Pox and as a consequence the digging wasn't getting done as I simply haven't had the stamina or the energy.
However, I have now found myself out of work after the company I was working for decided to terminate my contract so I have found time to work up the allotment and update my blog.
This week I took advantage of the excellent weather and got about a third of the allotment dug. I have to do it in short bursts so as not to give myself a bad back. About an hour a day is all I dare manage. But the conditions are currently perfect. We haven't had any rain since 5th February resulting in the soil being quite dry for this time of year. The temperature has been delightful so that I have on some days been digging in my shirt sleeves.
Anyway, to demonstrate I have attached a photo of the local church, the grounds of which I walk through on my way to the allotment.
