Made our way back to plot 4 today to try and get a little of the digging done, little being the key word! lol
Keeping with the plan of doing it in bite sized chunks, I went back to work on the corner I started yesterday. While I dug/forked it over Kat, Lucy and Ozzie helped out buy grabbing any weed, clumps of grass and roots and chucking them in our handy white bucket.
We kept at it for a hour or two until it was time for the kids to get home, washed and in bed.
I came back after dropping them off to turn it over again and just grab any stray bits that were missed by my lovely assistants. Spent an hour or so turning and weeding, as you can see in the picture I have a third of todays patch to sift trough tomorrow before starting on the next chunk.
As I am new to this I have no idea if what I am doing is right but it is satisfying seeing a bed emerge, even if it is a teeny tiny section on our lotty's corner ;o)
One day I hope to get it looking nice and tidy like our neighbors plots!
Well thats enough rambling from me for now, but if you have any hints, tips, advice or comments please feel free to let us know!
TTFN,
Rob, Kat, Lucy and Oscar
