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.

Weeding and talking
The evening was so nice and the Calebrase won't stand much longer so H and I went to the lottie. H harvested the Calebrase whilst I did did a job over at the new plots. When I came back H was chatting with our lottie neighbour whilst they weed their respective plots. It's a trait amongst lottie friends - weeding and talking. There was also a tray full of Calebrase and a few Lettuce sitting on the front of the plot. H had a bin full of weeds and was still pulling them out by the hand full. I emptied the bin into one of the compost bins and gave the empty one back. H set about weeding the Leeks and Onions patch. I got busy digging up another row of spuds. After that I tidied up the french beans. A few leaders were not running up the canes properly. To finish with I watered the peas and squashes.
