You wouldn't believe it, looking at this picture, but three-quarters of the plot has been dug! Thankfully!! Yay, I can actually see the end of the digging

Oh, I'm leaving the couch grass on the left-hand side until last - as a little treat. PMSL

Well done! That looks like some nice fertile soil. Would you like some of the stones that are in my vegetable plot just to add a bit of visual variety! Bet you are itching to get planting and sowing now.

Bet the plot holders either-side of you are pleased you have taken on the plot.

Oh well played Piglet! Lovely job.
I actually like grubbing out couch grass.......very satisfying...
and I'm winning! The bits which grow up around the perimeter fences come out really easily now, not the forests that threatened to take over prior to my waging war on it.

Great, piglet. I bet you are looking forward to the first planting and sowing! Won't be long and you'll be harvesting!

Agree Elaine - very therapeutic to dig out couch grass. Just wish it would all grow in the open and not around my soft fruit!

And especially not around gooseberry bushes with all their thorns!
