The welcome mat

While Jane was digging (she says she likes digging ) I got on with sorting the top corner out where our plot number stake would live.

First job was to go around the plot and put all the old bricks, paving slabs, concrete blocks all in one place and then as we didn't want to drag massive heavy blocks of concrete into the car, try to work out something to do with them.


The very top corner, there had been a fire or something, so using 4 of the bloody heavy concrete slabs the corner got converted into a raised bed of  one square meter and filled with the soil/compost that we found in the dump (now compost heap) behind the shed.

That is quite a decent job for stuff found on the allotment plot, bit of up-cycling. Not sure what to plant in it though, might plant Nasturtiums in the as the flowers and leaves are both edible.

Comment from Jane... can't believe the colour of the sky!  Such a beautiful sunny Sunday for February!
