My Plot

Plot 46, Burnside Allotments, Cambridge

Oh the shame of it!!!


I have a confession to make - I have not been near the plot for ages now

- I do have excuses though, I have been doing another course (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy) which involves me having to write loads of essays, read loads of books so that I can pretend that I know what I am talking about etc etc....

I have decided to collect a load more free compost from the council and put it on all the beds then cover them in thick plastic, this should hopefully then make the soil easier to work and cut out the light to the weeds so they all die off, I only think I will manage to plant a few beds this spring. At least covering them up will keep them in good condition until I can do something with them.

I am going to visit the plot and will take some photos just to show how bad it has got!

Hello

My name is Susan Harwood.

I'm contacting people who might be interested in my new blog - people who list 'the environment' or allotments (!) amongst their interests on their 'blogger's profile'.

It’s called

SHOUTING AT THE RADIO

It is concerned with the environment, building, architecture, politics and education and can be found at

http://shoutingattheradio.blogspot.com/

It is in its very early stages just yet - so comments will be especially welcome!

Yours sincerely

Susan Harwood

Hey, Emma... don't give up! Used to envy you being able to blog just about daily AND tackle the allotment.

I still can't find time to blog more than once monthly, but I keep to that & I'm glad I do because of all the rich history I've got.

Just doing a few beds sounds good when you're so busy... you'll still get that excited feeling when you pop along to your plot & see how much things have grown, & it'll give you a reason to get there.

Hope you keep going. John
