Hi I’m new to this blogging lark ,don’t really know what i am doing !!!but here goes .My name is Jean and I live with my husband in a little bungalow with a small garden ,we grow flowers in a border and have lots of pots dotted around ,mostly its lawn and Pete my husband has built decking on which we can sit and read and relax ,we also have an allotment which we grow various vegetables,its our first year so its all trial and error ,we are growng potatoes early and main crop ,runner beans, broad beans ,carrots ,parnips ,leeks , lettice, peas, cabbage and maybe others bits i’ve forgotten .We have a little shed in which to keep the tools ,Theres about 30 plots and its nice to chat and exchange ideas with the other folks who are all very friendly ,Pete and I only retired at Christmas so its all new to us ,but can’t believe how the time flies by ,we are never bored .
I shall close now .Hoping someone will leave me a comment
Best wishes to you all .

Hi there, your doing alright for a new girl!! It doesnt take long to get the hang of this, your house is lovely and just to warn you this sight is very addictive, not much gets done in the garden :0)) especially when it is raining and we have not had that lately either.

Welcome from me to. Now that wasent as hard as you thought was it? and you've added photos and only one of each well done you. The photo thing is a bit of a joke on here, as some of us, me included, have put the same picture on twice; so you are doing extremely well

You've done well with your first blog. I remember when I did my first one I was a bag of nerves lol (but that's nothing new really)

Hi Jean,

Great first blog! I`m so pleased you decided to come to GOY and post an entry. It`ll make it easier to keep in touch with you now. Roman and Sophie are so grown up now that I wonder where the time goes. I`ll send you an email with some up to date photos soon. Love and best wishes to you and Pete. :o)

Love and Hugs

Just looked at your photos of the allotment and wonder if you have blogged details about how you constructed your enclosed area - looks brilliant.

Welcome to Goy, Jeansusan. You should enjoy yourself here as it's a very friendly place & we're all "mad" on growing things!

I have started helping a friend from church with his allotments. You can follow our progress on my blogs. I've written several on the allotment already & plan to do fortnightly updates. The next due in a week's time LOL!

I loved that little corner of your garden full of daffs! :-)
