      • Shredded all the woody prunings and broccoli plants I brought home, along with some clumps of grass I pulled up from the garden.
        Now I have a large and very heavy sack of shreddings to take to the allotment.

                  • Carried my big sack of shreddings to the allotment. That was pretty back-breaking.

                    I then dug over the last bean patch and rigged up the first X-frame of canes.

                            • Battled with more ground elder . My trial of covering bed with weed suppressant last yr certainly helped. Once have last bits out (haha as if I havnt missed any) I will re-cover area with extra barrier. It will not beat me .
