    Your definitely becoming a knowledgeable allotment owner Sarah. The things you've learned so far, from doing and reading, shows in what you've managed to grow. You've also made some great and very useful items along this years journey. The new bench inside the polly tunnel/shed will be another useful item. I can see in my minds eye, lots of seedlings growing, for next years planting.
    I'm so pleased you find family and friends to eat your produce.
    It would be so sad if you didn't. 😂 We all know now, you won't eat any of it.
    Anyhoo, well done Sarah and thanks for sharing your allotment adventures. Xx

    Don't worry Sarah, my craft room gets like that. Messy, messy, messy. The kids know when I'm not feeling well, everything gets messy. Heck we have a major clean up of the barn to do but I just don't want to do it. It's so dusty. It has a dirt floor so dirt just gets everywhere. The pumpkin looks amazing. The other two look like a squash. Did you plant squash. You are doing fantastic with the garden. Because of you, now I have lots of ideas for mine.

    Hi 👋🏼 Sarah, I’m really impressed with what you have done this year. You certainly took many veggies home with you. Willow being the one eating and enjoying all. I agree with you about starting earlier next year. Maybe the end of March depending how the weather is. It was frosty this year so everyone started a bit late. I hope you do it live next year so we can follow behind you. You can always setup the camera and just let it go. No fuss, no muss. Enjoy the rest of the year to just pull down everything. Have a fantastic week see you on the next ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜

    Please tell Willow to try leaving the corn on the cob, clean it, then boil the whole cob for 15 or 20 minutes then roll in butter and sprinkle salt and enjoy, that’s how we cook it and eat in the US! Please try! Merry Christmas! ✌🏻💞😊
