There seems to be a link with extreme weather and the allotments task. Last month we had the heaviest downpour and this evening we had the hottest day of the year!

Sandy and I met at Salt Hill park at 18:15 ready to run out by 18:30 to meet Jen and Peter directly at the task.

On arrival we could see the lovely progress made to plot 5 by the Home Start Slough team.

The plot we were working on tonight was solid as a rock! The dry weather had certainly taken its toll on the ground.

That said Jen and Peter in particular did an outstanding job of clearing half the plot.
