Arial View

Got back last night following another two day pre-move trip to Devon.  My courtyard garden looks like the Battle of the Somme owing to the fish pond that is being created and the house is still a work in progress.  Consequently still no work done on my allotment.  However, I managed a sneaky ten minutes up there just to remind myself it really exists and is ready and waiting, and whilst buying laminate flooring managed to grab a bag of main crop seed potatoes.  It won't have escaped people's notice that the second earlies are still nestling in egg boxes in my woodshed, but at least they're in the right county now and plants have a way of catching up.  I'm back down there in a couple of days for good and hopefully within a week or so should start work in earnest.  In the meantime here's an arial view - not taken by the North Devon Coastguard but my friend Steve who I assume was on top of one of the diggers they've had clearing round the communal shed.  You can spot my bit easily - it's the uncultivated one at the bottom, next to the grass.  The one with no shed and just a solitary compost bin waiting for me to fill it.
