My Plot

Plot 46, Burnside Allotments, Cambridge

Look what I've been up to...

First; dig a load of holes....
Then make a door & door frame out of treated timber......
With the help of a chicken that thinks it can read the instructions!
Next hammer posts into the holes, then put anchor plates over the posts and back fill the holes, with the help of a lovely assistant....
Then slot hoops over the posts & fix the ridge pole in place & attach bracing poles to each corner.....
Next fix door frames to hoops at either end and base rails to bottoms of hoops....
Put paving slabs up the middle to form a path.....
And then cover the whole structure in plastic (try to do this without swearing!)
And there you have it...... a polytunnel!
Just add plants......
