Today I heard that I have got my first ever allotment! Here are photos of the weather, and the stream outside the allotments - it got much worse after that.

The plot itself is covered in brambles; 4 of us are sharing clearing it and then dividing it into 4 starter plots, allegedly of around 150 m2.

I'm trying not to let my plans get too far ahead of the massive amount of work needed to prepare it.
