Sun glorious sun! Today the allotment was basked in a wonderfully warm
glow, erasing all memories of the previous rain-filled week. As we
surveyed the allotment for what needed to be done, it was clear last
week's rain had not been all bad as some new flowers had bloomed and our
vegetables, particularly the broad beans, had grown even taller. But
alas, despite the good news, our old enemy, the weeds, had decided to
come back for revenge. This time, feeling somewhat lethargic, we decided
to employ a new tactic which would utilise the hoe. We roughly dug up
the weeds and left them on the surface of the soil for our old friend,
the sun, to dry them out. This method was of course far easier on our
delicate hands and dodgy knees but we'll have to wait and see how
effective it is. Stay tuned!
