Saturday 11th October 2008

We all went down to the allotment this afternoon, after looking at the weather on the television and being told by the weatherman it was going to stay dry ! The weather man had not given much thought to the weather in Wrexham and while we were there we had drizzle from the moment we got out of the car. It wasn't too bad though and we managed to do some really good work.

First we built the last bed and a small bed for rhubarb attached to an existing one, then we used the black weed matting to cover alot of the new paths in the new plot and then barrowed loads of bark chippings to cover them. We left an area free for the raspberries to go in, and covered the rest of it, apart from the very bottom where we are putting apple trees and hopefully a greenhouse eventually.

After doing all of this the rain finally decided to set in and we decided to go home and have a shower to get warm and clean again !
