Merging Blogs

I have 2 blogs, one for allotment and one for everything else, but I have decided to merge them into one. A lot of the stuff I am wanting to post lately kinda spans them both. Life isn't easy to cut up into distinct parts, well excluding work, but no one wants/can hear all about that. 

So all future posts will be made on my Little Sue Doll blog, I will tag all the allotment stuff with "On The Allotment" so it can be filtered.

Frankenshed

Let me tell you about Frankenshed, the shed Bill built almost completely from recycled materials.


The only new things we bough was a bag of nails, some tool hangers, a sign, and a bolt and padlock to secure it. All the timber used was gathered by Bill from companies who where discarding it. The door and window where acquired the same way, rescued from land fill. 


To some it may look like a monstrosity but we love it. 

The roof is covered in plastic, the same that we used to cover the plot to kill the grass off. So now instead of taking up space its been reused as a roofing material. 


Its also a lot tidier than before, we built some shelves to store small things, and with the longer tools hanging we have lots more space.
