Monday 27th October
Mum and dad went to the allotment for a good hour late morning and harvested, last of yellow courgettes, salad leaf, beetroot, leeks, chillies, salsify, swede, turnips, carrots and parsnips. Did a little weeding too.

Sunday 26th October
The new chicken run has been assembled and a shed; the shed is 6x6 ft and the run is 12x6 ft. I haven't really been getting to the allotment as I have been unwell again and it is too dark when I get home after work.
