Another unexpected trip!!

Today we had another surprise trip!!!  Andrea's parents had given Extra Instructions for A Lotment so we were going to go sort it out!

There's our bus stop down there!

...and we're off!  I like going on trips!

We stayed on the bus an extra stop to last time and got off here!

We didn't have so far to go for A Lotment, which was handy!

Then it was just down here.....

We spotted some blackberries on the way!

Here we are!

We'd been told to prop open the doors on both sheds.  This is the big one with rat poo everywhere.

Then we got the rusty old wheelbarrow and put all the gardening tools in it.

We put a couple of luggage labels on them saying they were free if anyone wanted to have them.  It's a shame that we're not coming back to use them ourselves, but Andrea can't look after such a big plot all by herself and her parents are just - well, too old and worn out to do all the weeding!

We got all the tools from the little shed, and then had to hoick the wheelbarrow down the bumpy path.

We left the wheelbarrow here by the entrance gates we came in at.  That was Andrea's Mum's idea.  That way, people see them as them come into A Lotment and can take what they need on the way to where they garden.

But it's still sad that we're not coming back.....

That's the little shed with all the spiders webs in.  We had to use the watering cans to prop the door open.

We cut lots of bayleaf off the bayleaf bush tree and then said goodbye to the roses.  We hope they continue to be happy here.

This one grew a new bud since we were here Monday!

We said goodbye to the Magnolia Tree and hope he'll continue to be happy here too.

He's got some interesting markings on him!

Bye.....

We decided to leave some floppy discs before we went home.

Goodbye A Lotment.

Then we went a bit further up past our plot and left another floppy disc.  Hope they get found!

We left another book on this wall!

Ooo holly tree!

Left one on this fence too!

Then we went back the way we came ........

.....and decided to go past the main gate and down a bit further!

We left one here too!

And then we met Duck!!!!!

We left him a floppy disc too!!!

Gosh it's so peaceful here.....

There's so many A Lotment plots!!!  LOADS of them!

Oh that's pretty!!!  Wonder what kind of flower that is.....

And then we got back to the main gate again.....

And it's time to go home.........

So we went down to the main road....

And then went this way.....

And that's our bus stop over there!!!  We had to wait a few minutes though.

And we're off!

And then we got off here!

And then just had to walk down here....

And we're home!
What a lovely day out!
