As you can see, I was shocked on my arrival at the allotement for shop duty today! My Greenhouse got attacked by the winds over the weekend. 6 panels in all were missing. All found bar one - that was until Arthur the Deliver Boy (who celebrated his 74th Birthday this week) spotted it on a small grass verge outside the allotment fencing.
The mess inside as awful, but the main job was to get the panels back on and to find all the "W" clips that had obviously NOT done their job!!
Luckily Nigel was on hand to help with the roof panels as I would never have reached up there. I coped with the lower panels, however my nails didn't!!
So after a good hour, my lovely greenhouse, with the help of Nigel, Derek, his dog Laddy & Arthur (Derek, Laddy & Arthur formed the search party for panels) is now back to a more secure one. I have been to the local Garden Centre and purchased a pack of 25 "W's" which I will go and distribute around the greenhouse panels later.
This is the shed on plot 119. We called them to let them know that it would need their attention!
Lucky my Broad Beans have flourished under the protection of the mini poly tunnel, which the wind removed, and I found a few raised beds down! I have now removed the other poly tunnel, so as to harden them off before the frost well and truly come along.
The onions and garlic on 121 are both doing really well as you can see from these photo's!!
