What I woreWhat I wore on a day off. Cycled to the allotment. Did a few chores, put the coffee grounds round the plants. Brief chats with a few people. Then cycle back, grab a pint on the way as I was sweating buckets. Home and quick change of clothes before C gets in from her day with Vicky.

A quiet joy

A quiet joyA quiet joy – allotment visit and a bit of edging of the plot, some watering. And we have signs of life….. the plug plants have yet to die, spinach, pak choi and bush beans seem to be appearing.  Add some oregano into the mix.  Meet a few other allotment holders as I’m leaving.  Think the whole early thing works for me but isn’t the most social of options.

Home and a shop with C, nip for a coffee along the way and a beer on the way back.
