May bank holiday blitz

Smokey has been helping us on the allotment.  The big news of recent weeks is that the huge conifers are down!  It took some months of email exchanges with the council - but it has worked - they are gone.  We thought there were about 7-9 of them, but actually it was only 3 with multiple trunks.  Did not have the presence of mind to take pics of the stumps, so these will follow, but the plot is now much more of a sun trap, so the plants which are all now in, will have a much better stab at survival.

The slug population of West Yorkshire, however, seems to be gathering on our hillside.

 Let battle commence.
