Kieron and Jack visit with gifts - 16 July 2006

Today my brother Kieron and my nephew Jack brought me some plants for the allotment - sweet peppers, chilli, melon and courgette plants.

Kieron dug loads of ground but then left after half an hour because Jack who is only 18 months old was getting bored. So then I was left to break up, weed and de-stone and de-glass the earth which took 3 hours. Then I planted the plants having made just enough space for them.

I also planted a strawberry plant which I'd had in my garden in a pot and some parsley from Tesco.
