Today's visit to the site was mainly involved with clearing vacant site 16a for the association. I brought my trailer down and, again with the help of my grandson, Jake, loaded a mass of metal junk headed for the tip. We left some straight poles and lengths of Dexion as they may be useful to someone and, anyway, the trailer was too full to take it all. We squeezed some rubbish from a newly cleared and rearranged plot 88 onto the trailer before taking the lot to the tip leaving a huge heap of rotten wood burning in a clear space with the smoke going safely over onto the field at the back.
Having got rid of the metal we sorted some of my own rubbish before trying to put a final seal on a roof joint on the Special Needs plot greenhouse. Unfortunately the tube of silicone sealant I had found in my workshop at home was too old and had gone solid. Given the weather forecast I will probably have to wait a few days for the joint to dry out again before I can finish that job!
I was going to start digging over my potato patch ready for the seed potatoes chitting in my spare bedroom but we ran out of time and left the site with noone else there so we locked up on our way out.
