This lovely new feature for my blog is as much for my benefit as it is your entertainment (entertainment?!?). It will be a more consistent way of recording my monthly activities and progress and give me something to refer back to next year. I've always intended to keep an allotment notebook, in fact I've started several. Unfortunately they seem to get lost, forgotten or ignored by the end of the first week because I'm much too busy doing things rather than writing about them. I may be doing a little bit of retrospective writing for this diary as I identify where I've left things a little late, hopefully this will keep me ahead of the game next year and make this journal a useful resource for anyone who wants to run an allotment in an ad-hoc and slightly half a*sed manner.
12th June 2007 - Please note. The problem with a blog is that it is a live medium. It's not really planned in advance. So seemingly great ideas like an allotment diary can prove to be a little cumbersome to maintain. What I'm saying is don't blame me if this turns out to be a bit crap. You're witnessing a work in progress so give me some leeway until it becomes unbearable then drop me a line to tell me were I'm going wrong or how I can improve. I'm very accomodating you know.
I'll break the diary down by month, so slick on the links below for a view of an ideal(ish) month down the plot!

I'm sure I won't be the first person to point this out but... the links aren't links? Quite frankly, this is shoddy posting here, SuperDave. Not like you at all. Everything alright at home? Perhaps you should talk to someone...
SuperDave replies...
Eek, I didn't realise people still read the blog unprompted. The problem is I'm linking to pages that don't exist yet. I shall quickly remedy this while my trout bakes...
Thank you Switch, nice to hear from you again!
