What every allotment gardener knows, or soon learns, is that what some people class as rubbish can quite often have a second or third use by an imaginative allotmenteer.
Over the years I’ve put this idea to great use and collected a vast array of materials, some more useful than others.
There is a fine line between neatly storing the reusable ‘stuff’ out of sight and creating a junk heap. I may have crossed that line in this area of the allotment.
As pictures can replace a lot of words, here’s a look at the ‘not often seen’ part of the garden (the messy bits).
This regal structure was christened ‘The Soweto Hilton’ when built, totally out of reclaimed materials I might add.
It’s sole purpose, to house yet more Junk really useful items.
I think it’s time for me to stop collecting recyclable materials and let someone else have the problem of storing it make use of it.
Hi Davie here still waiting for plot but i am helping other in the allotments to get the hang of it . loving the banter and fresh air always amazed by the inventive ideas from the gardeners

Glad to hear you’re enjoying it Dave, the banter can certainly be side splitting at times, hope you get your plot soon.
