The Allotment in 2011





























































































This was our allotment in 2011 , where we grew so many of our own vegetables.

We took over a larger plot, as the previous one was only half that size before. So we could grow so many more varieties which were stored or frozen here to last the wintertime. The Beetroot was also made into Beetroot wine, which was very nice indeed. It was a very dry summer, so we did have to go often to water everything, otherwise everything would have suffered.

On the allotments are water facilities, so you can attach a hose to a tap, which is obviously very handy indeed. This year we will again be growing as much as we can there.

The Rabbits At Home - February 2012


This is a Video of our Rabbits "Apricot" & Cherry", which were both from the RSPCA in the Summer of 2011. They usually are outdoors in a Hutch, but during the Winter here in the coldest weather, they live indoors in a cage, then allowed in the Lounge (Under supervision!) in the evenings. That way they get enough exercise and seem to enjoy themselves too. Cherry is the White Rabbit. We also have a Cat called "Parsley" who was also from the RSPCA and gets along well with the Rabbits.
