  • new bridge at last

    went to the lottie today after a 3 week absence due to snow ice etc.
    all my brussels have been eaten by squirrils/rats and some of the garlic & onion sets were dud out too ,even my curly kale has turned into viscid green slime after the thaw.
    dug out the last few manky parsnips,plot is now essentially empty.
    Wonder of wonders though,the new bridge has arrived,having spent the last18 months carrying everything over a bridge over the river made up of 2 wobbly scaffolding planks I arrived today to find an engineering masterpiece has been installed.
    the new bridge is 5 meters long and 2.5 meters wide built on two rsj's topped with12x 4 timber with hand rails both sides,it's certainly big enough to reverse the car over & a trailer of manure.
    trouble is the approach isn't finished so it was the wobbly bridge again today.

      Wow, Snakeshack that is very impressive. Is the allotment site a council one? If so, well done Harrow! West London ain't all bad, eh?
      Whooops - now what are the dogs getting up to?

        this is a council site and over the past year councillor susan hall has championed the plight of allotments in harrow and made available cash for improvements across all the sites .
        Susan has also been instrumental in setting up a "commitee" of site reps for each site which meets on a quartely basis and has input into such matters as where and when the budget was spent & a review of the rules for allotments as well as adressing security and sustainability.
        now the bridge is in I am expecting my compost toilet to arrive.
        now I know some of my council tax is going to good use.
        Top job harrow and particularly susan and the allotment team.
