Got my hole dug last night!
The hole to take my bath that is and henceforth my wildlife pond! Kept the topsoil seperate to make some potting compost and managed to get the bath in situ. The bath is white so covered it with black weed suppessant membrane and tucked in the edges.
Got a few strange looks as I was digging the grave sized hole!
I might see if I can tidy up the surrounds and make it look 'not like a bath' this weekend. I did contour the inside with clay I took from the hole and have a gentle slope out of one end leading to a plateau mid way then sloped down to the bottom. Hopefully any small creature that falls in by mistake will be able to make its way out.
Took the details of a couple of prospective new plot holders to put on the waiting list. They may be out of luck though as I think we already have three names and only two plots available!
First allotment association committee meeting at 2 pm today so my secretarial skills will be scrutinised!
