Suprises!

Went to the allotment today to start clearing stuff away -  the oldbeans, squashes, sweetcorn etc. Should have done this a while ago, yet get a letter from the allotment telling you off if you don't do this. 

The big suprise was that I got quite a pile of Jerulsalum artichokes. I didn't even plant these - they were just left in the ground from last year.

The place is looking pretty tired now. You can see in the picture before that I'm still having a lot of problems with the grass, and pretty much the only other thing growing is Kale and perputal spinach.
