Muck and manure

By Katharine Capocci on Nov 4, 09 10:13 PM

Just when you think the digging's all done for a bit, another bunch of those pesky
weeds pop up.
So a two-hour stint spent digging and bagging up down on the allotment one Sunday afternoon and pilgrim Paul's making progress.
Now we feel we're eventually getting on top with this allotment, our minds are turning to manure.
But we need to move fast before the bridge to our allotments is closed for repairs. And while the ground's still in reasonable condition for digging now winter's on its way.
Not looking forward to this at all, and hope I'm not standing downwind of it.
We're not sure whether to go for a half load or the full monty.
Decisions, decisions. Oh, what glam lives we lead...
