In go the brassicas



Sometimes this allotment lark gives you a great sense of achievement. This week has seen me plant up the brassica patch with cabbages, broccoli, and cauliflower. A little rooting around at the back of my plot also turned up some chicken wire and some freecycled water pipe. Some head scratching and a couple of hours later and i had 3 mesh tunnels to act as pigeon deterrents.

I'm not sure what's more satisfying, knowing that the plot is coming together or actually discovering that i have hidden practical skills!
