Popped down the allotment

This morning I popped down to the allotment to look at both the allotments and there are a few things that I have noticed which need doing, these are:

- Clearing out of polytunnel borders
- Digging of polytunnel borders
- Repair polytunnel cover with repair tape
- Clear out of greenhouse
- Dig over allotment 1
- Clear and dig over allotment 2
- Cut down any loganberry/raspberry canes which have appeared in amongst the Rhubarb
- Tidy up raised beds
- Make the raised bed at the front higher by purchasing new boards
- Make sure all netting/fleece in put into box
- General tidy up around sides

I expect all those to be done in the next few weeks (weather dependant) and will put these into my weekly jobs to do as I go along.
