What a flippin' busy month

I just don't know how people with allotements cope! I only have my garden and it takes quite a bit of my time up, I pop out for a 'few minutes' potter and when I come back in I realise that I've been out for an hour!

These pictures were taken on 17th May, so as you can imagine things have grown since then, especially with the lovely sunny weather that we've all been having.

I have grown far too much stuff as Amanda tells me, (when she can find me amongst the undergrowth.)

It's all been a big learning curve so far, but one that I've enjoyed immensely xx.
