Dug over
Today (first none raining day this week) i locked hubby out in the garden to finish the digging over he began, so we can start to decide whether we will turf, or pave. We think pave with lots of bedding, it will be more ideal for the kids what with the garden being so tiny ( to read hubbys blog go to www.shadows2k.blogspot.com )Hubby bought a few little bits and pieces for me this week, a couple of hosta and tricyrtis plants, and (get this) 'tesco value' bulbs of freesia, anemone, gladioli and dutch iris. We'll see if they actually come up this year.
This blog might be taking on an extra content too, as we are going to choose an allotment from a couple of plots next week. I am dead pleased. Will probably mainly be raspberries, blackberries, and some such put in this year, but will be really good. Proper hippy homeschool family we will be then!!!

We get loads of blackberries every year - had some yummy blackberry and apple pies out of those :) Also get some lovely raspberries but the birds seem to like them too and eat them all! ~ Sarah
LOL - that's v. bad luck Esther!
I planned to put some soft fruit in the back garden - but have missed the boat a bit (best to do it in the autumn/winter), plus I wanted to have a bash at training plums/apples - but again, bit late for that now, will have to wait until autumn.
Tomatoes can grow very well outside - ours were still cropping well into October last year.
