Had to do a 13 hour shift on Tuesday, after the keyholder on the late shift rang in sick, it takes it out of you, especially when as Management I dont get paid overtime, so got to work today thinking I'd have to try and take some time back before I go to my new branch in a weeks time, only to get a message that another keyholder wasnt well, and I was the only person who could cover him tonight, so 2nd 13 hour day of the week, and 5th in the past 3 weeks!
I dont mind working hard, but its getting beyond a joke at times, so if we are covered, then I'm going to try and take some time back on Sunday and spend the day at the plot finishing the grapevine arbour / pagoda thingy and painting it!
I've been looking for something to top the uprights, perhaps gargoyles or something similar, but as yet havent found the right things at the sort of price I want, so will have to have a trawl around n see what I can think of! I have seen a fab windvane, with a witch on a broomstick on it, but its far too expensive! Ah well, perhaps Ill manage to come up with something myself!
Proper pictorial update in the next couple of days, I promise!
Sue and Lee's Vegetable Allotment pages, detailing all that we've been doing on our allotments, from clearing the 8' tall weeds that they were covered in when we started with our first plot in October 2006, through to where we are today, with 2 neighbouring full sized productive organic vegetable growing plots, 2 apiaries and 6 Beehives!!
FYI
Clicking on any of the pictures will open them at full size in the browser window, which means you will have to use the 'back' button to return to the main pages, whereas clicking to the left or right of any picture will open them in a new window, if you fancy a closer look at any of the piccies we've posted! We've included a Google Earth satelite picture of our plots and this years planting plan at the bottom of the page, next to each other. If you choose the Earth view on the satelite image you can rotate the image until it is lined up with the planting plan, then use the arrows in the plan to scroll from Plot 2 to Plot 1.
