Day one

Hello Plot 61B, we are your new tenants. Please be kind to us poor novices. We have been told by everyone we meet that you used to be the most beautiful plot on the allotment. So no pressure then. 

Day One – scorchio. Mr Cobnut spends some time assessing where to begin. Hmm. This looks like a raised bed. As good a place as any. We clear it with reasonable ease and cover with tarp. Well that wasn’t so bad – we deserve a well earned lunch! 

We find another smaller raised bed area. Should be a piece of cake, we think. Ok this has some weird stuff in it, and what we later learn is couch grass. Is this weird rooted thing a weed or an old plant? There is an old label that says Shisho 2012. Who knows.

We are tired, covered in bites and so call it a day, covering up the second bed and will go back to it next week.
