Welcome to the vine, as others have said, it can be a daunting task, its starting to get late in the season but there are still some things to sow and plant, beds to prepare and improve or just cover for ron.

PS hope your back gets better soon

welcome

grow what you like to eat - I always find this an odd bit of advice 'cos why would 'you' do anything different, but actually one of the old boys on our allotment site does actually grow things that they don't like to eat - bizarre - but, as he says, he does it for the enjoyment and then gives them away

Welcome to the Vine Buckers. Take it steady, prepare one section at a time, and make sure that any areas you get cleared are either planted up or covered.

Welcome to the madhouse and Congrats on your Lottie!. Stick with it as in the beginning the joy of finally getting it keeps you going but as you work your way through, it'll feel like you'll never get there, but you will so good luck. Remember small chunks and document each small step and victory you when it feels to much, look at these to show yourself how far you've come and spur you on

Rome was not built in a day, so take it slow and most of all ENJOY!

Thanks for all your messages of support. Usually impatient and want to do things quickly but after reading all your replies I AM definately going to adopt the Rome wasn't built in a day method.

No it wasnt Buckers, it was done in an afternoon!!
Seriously, take your time, clear bits properly, cover and move on.
Most of all, enjoy as has been said.

Can I suggest that building a Colosseum on your plot might be overdoing it slightly.

Good luck and start at the beginning.
