  • Rhubarb in

    And the digging continues! This time we dug just a half bed and have put two rhubarb crowns in there. They’ll not do anything much this year but they’ll be good for next year.

  • Blackcurrants!

    We’ve dug yet more of the allotment. We’ve raked some soil food through it all. We’ve picked out some of the weeds we missed. And now we have planted blackcurrants! Bed #9 is designated the fruit patch: we’re hoping to get raspberries, gooseberries and maybe redcurrants too!

  • First planting

    The allotment is all looking very pretty and springy. The daffodils are all starting to open up and there’s a single magnificient red and yellow tulip. In the next allotment over, the blossom is looking lovely.

  • More digging!

    This weekend we’ve done lots more digging!

  • Start digging!

    We’ve done some digging! We’ve drawn some diagrams and portioned our allotment up into a number of beds. We’ve marked some of them out with pegs and string. And now we’ve dug the first one over.

  • Plot 119a

    It starts today! After roughly a year on the waiting list for Burley Model Allotments we’ve been invited inside and offered a plot. Plot number 119a is ours!

  • Best Music of 2020 - Part 3 Weird

    There was some good music in 2020, so I’ve put together my list of ~40 albums. This is the ‘Weird’ section - there’s nothing in common here except that they don’t quite fit anywhere else. And I love them all.

  • Best Music of 2020 - Part 2 Club

    There was some good music in 2020, so I’ve put together my list of ~40 albums. This is the ‘Club’ section - from full on disco to some proper techno.

  • Best Music of 2020 - Part 1 Songs

    Thanks, COVID. There was some good music in 2020, so I’ve put together my list of ~40 albums. This is the ‘Songs’ section - a mixed bag of genre but all recognisably songs.
