Pesky Pigeons

Allotment update.

We know there are those of you out there who are eager for more news of the allotment.....well even if there aren't its all we've got to fill up our blog with this week - cue very dull photos of veg..................potatoes to be exact:

Despite the best efforts of the pigeons, who have eaten every sprout, cabbage and brocolli we planted, the rest of the allotment is doing fine...well "ok" at least. We've replanted all the stuff that the pigeons had eaten and covered them with netting (the plants, rather than the pigeons).

For the first time ever we have found ourselves in June saying things like "we could do with a bit of rain", we are turning into pensioners!! On at least two occassions we've got home to answerphone messages from fellow allotmenteers telling us of the latest pest to attack our plants.

Calm yourselves heres a photo of a bean............
