Love the blog, Sarah - and the shed (jealous,
moi?) - as far as tips for blogs go:
- I find that I'm inclined to 'go on a bit' on each post, so my advice would be to keep each entry fairly short, and include a couple of pics with each one.
- Do a post (and photos!) each week/each time you go to the plot - it's easier to remember what you've done today rather than racking your brains and charting your progress is a real boost when you think you are getting nowhere fast!
- If it is your only record of what you're doing, defo put down 'today I sowed/planted out/cropped'
- If you have an ego thing like me, put a counter on so you can say to yourself - 'ooh, x people were interested enough in me to look at my blog!'
- Put down successes and failures - pat yourself on the back! and if you have problems, put 'em down - you don't know who's reading who can help!
- Get the family roped in to post their own entries - it's a family allotment after all, and it'll be the equivalent of a 'scrap book' for the future!
Hope this gives you an idea or two - of course your best bet is to cruise around and nick ideas from those blogs that you like the look of. Personally I'd not only nick Wellie's blog, but her whole garden.
