Allotment 2022 onwards

The bright green of new oak leaves

I love the green of the new leaves on our oak trees, so couldn't resist this when the sun was shining.
The morning was spent working on the new pond at the allotment.  It was started back in November and we had it all set up and ready for plants and wildlife at the end of January.  However at the end of February, it developed a leak.  Despite much searching, we couldn't find the hole.  So today, we removed all the edging, emptied the pond (saving a lot of the water in wheelbarrows and buckets), cleaned it all out, then added a new liner on top of the original one.  Then we filled it again (see the extra).
Hoping there are no more leaks and then we can get on with the planting around the edge soon.
