This bloggery is about my allotment in Moira, South Derbyshire, UK. Moira used to be part of the UK coal fields. I have done a lot of double digging on my plot. The ex-miners round here thought I was starting my own pit head hence Mining in Moira. And No, there aren't any Hobbits or Dwarfes round here either, that's Moria.

Pottering
After Tea I went out into the garden. There is a big Sorrel that is in the wrong place. I set about it and managed to get it out in less than ten minutes. H now has another couple of feet of Sweet Peas to plant out against the new trellis. Since it took me less time than I had thought I decided to do some pottering in the greenhouse. I had picked up some potting compost on Monday. I used it to fill up the big blue crates then planted up the Tomato plantlets. Whilst I was about it and the light remained I sowed Cauli's, Sweet Corn, Gherkins and Courgettes. The light was starting to fade so I finished off by organising a hose to the greenhouse and watering everything. Since I had the hose in my hand I gave the trees in the garden a dousing. Jobs done I came in for a brew.
