Still Battling The Raspberry Bed Bindweed

A very chilly morning with high winds but unexpectedly dry! I didn't think today would be an allotment visiting day, but washed dressed and out at 9:30 for a couple of hours on the plot with my Robin, once again working on clearing the last red raspberry bed of canes and ultimately the Bindweed.

Photo above at end of play for the day. There is Bindweed to dig out but essentially the bulk of the bindweed that was wound around the inside of the framing to the bed has been removed. Only John and I on the allotment this morning working and Adam came with kitchen waste to drop off in his compost bin.

I need to fix a corner of the framing as the timber has twisted and pulled apart, and then remove the vertical roof battens from the corners of the bed framing.

Only the old and the hardy come and work their allotments when its this bleeding cold.

Two tugs on the adjacent bed one for the cut raspberry canes and the other that got filled with the bindweed

Then off to meet Kelly at Emma & Andy's for a Digby Hug and some lunch.
