Raised Bed H1 & Fixing The Loft Conversion

70mph winds last night and the store in the back garden was laying flat on its doors. That's never happened before. Bleeding Freezing this morning, so I left the allotment to this afternoon said 8.5C Overcast but felt a good 3 - 4 degrees lower and a cold wind.

Frame assembled yesterday lifted with the aid of Ex Fireman Andy onto bed H1, he is around tomorrow and has said I can call on him to lift the Plot 1 Greenhouse Loft conversion back in place, as he knows I can't climb ladders anymore, and could not get the loft conversion into the hole in the roof on my own, these days.

That meant I had to get the loft conversion assembled today, which gave me motivation as it was cold and I could have happily come home, but working in the potting shed it was sheltered after I had cut the roofing batten up to join the parts of the loft conversion together.

Timbers cut ready for screwing the polycarbonate panels together that have been tack welded in place on the outside face

The two legs will hang down in behind of the aluminium frame to what was the opening vent and stop the loft conversion sliding off the roof, yes it did happen on the Plot 1A greenhouse when the glue gun tack welds failed.

I have the timber for an additional frame which will make the H1 raised bed significantly higher on the plot 1 side and little higher on the plot 1A side, due to the slope between the levels of the two plots across bed H1.

The cubic metre bag of soil has gone from the car park, so I have arranged for a load of woodchip to be dropped off Monday.
