Lost the Plot!!

Hello All
I've lost the plot - the allotment that is, although other half says I lost the plot along time ago!
I was served with an eviction notice as my grass was overgrown. It's my own fault as I had been concentrating my efforts on only one side of the plot so the other side got out of hand. As there was a waiting list for plots, I got the boot.
I was really upset at first, but every cloud has a silver lining, and it really was becoming a chore rather than a pleasure.
I have recently slipped a disc so other half says he will build me really high raised beds in the garden. It just means having to re-landscape the garden and getting rid of some shrubs.
And now I don't have to buy/build a shed for the hens I want to get as the year old shed down the lottie will become a hen hotel.
It will be better than the allotment as everything will be just outside the backdoor and no more allotment politics.

Will you be getting ex battery hens Jill?
Mine are, and they are so lovely now compared to how 'oven ready' they were when I got them. They lay for England, bless them.

we had been toying with the idea of an allotment, but given the grief I get with slugs in our 3 small vegs patches in the garden and the politics that I've heard so much about, we decided against it.
