Uncle Nige & all of us were at the allotment first thing this morning to move the shed from the top of the plot to right down at the bottom with the chickens ! Uncle Nige & Daddy managed to level the ground out and place the concrete slabs down so it will be level while Mummy & Henry weeded and did some digging.
Then with Henry acting as foreman we carried the shed down to its new situation. We had a couple of falls on the way, and unfortunately it fell on the runner beans, so after repositioning it down the far end of the plot we dug up the remaining runner bean plants and disposed of them - to be honest they were coming to an end and we had eaten enough runner beans anyway !!
Then Henry and I went to the Allotment shop to find out if the garlic had arrived yet. It was its first day opening after being shut in August. Graham said the garlic would be in next week, and we then bought some normal onion sets for over-wintering (60p !) and also some Claudia Aquadulce Broad beans for over-wintering as well (they were only 70p !). So when we got home, Uncle Nige & Daddy built the steps for the decking and we planted all the runner beans - there are piles and piles of them !
