Looks like the allotment will save you a fortune in gym fees!!!!! I recon you are going to get a great sense of satisfaction clearing and regenerating your new plot.

Hello Sean, I’m finally able to start to catch up on your videos from my long month trip from California to Florida on the Atlantic side. My um passed at 97 end of Feb. since I don’t like to fly, my brother came and got me. We had a good trip to his home, and back just be for Mother’s Day. Losing your last parent is hard, tears, laughter, the process goes on. It’s a wonderful plot, the bite is beautiful. I like the layered or terraced garden. It got so much potential and you’ll do a beautiful job of making it your own. I worked in my small courtyard this morning and gardening soothes the soul and brings peace. I’m going to look forward to seeing what you do in your plot. After you get your shed, will you have electricity? Imagine tea in the afternoon or a coffee watching the sunset… perfection ❤❤❤

Sean , I would leave the knotweed alone. It cannot be removed unless it is sent to a special site by authorised contractors. It is easily spread by the smallest root and the roots can go down many feet. If the site us council owned report it to them and they will come and treat it is the autumn with a special chemical treatment. ,,£30 ,per year us very good it's four times that in Cardiff. Good luck my plot was in a similar state took me two years to clear it ...enjoy.

Having lived In Japan for 23years..I had forgotten about the Easter holidays.........They were always my favorite.......the start of spring,,,,,

I had a serious smile at "it will be Christmas before we can fart" but completely lost it with the "frog spawn" description of soaked chia seeds. Actually , smiling started when y you said you were going to soak the seeds overnight as i have done this once myself and knew what an inedible mess you were due to get, but chia seeds are great nutrition boosters and the swelling they do can keep you feeling full for hours, Try sprinkling about a tablespoon dry onto your cereal. Adds a nice crunchy texture and all the swelling goes on in your stomach instead. Still "frog spawn" but you don't have to see it. From PA in the US, a longtime fan here cheering you on in your pursuit of a healthy lifestyle. And success with the new plot! I am 80 and still gardening avidly by fully embracing your philosophy of "do a little and do it often". Life changing advice for me.

I have to say I have been doing my own gardening since 2019 late.. and then I got a greenhouse to grow tomatoes, lettuce cucumbers, peppers over our winter, BUT .... then COVID hit...... and ever man and its dog were buying seeds etc.... thank god I already had mine... But in 2022 I decided to grow Broad Beans....... OMG.... they grew so big and was so many it was amazing... I think I still got some in the freezer lol..... but they did taste wonderful...

My goodness, what a challenge you have! I look forward to seeing you grow runner beans, my favourite vegetable. However, I now live in W Australia and it is too hot to grow them. Go for it!

Sean never mind 4 tiers, you’ll be in tears by the time you’ve finished with that 😂

Wow, that looks like a project! The things I miss most from my former allotment are the rhubarb, autumn fruiting raspberries, climbing beans, red and blackcurrants, mini fruit trees, chard, shallots (potatoes and parsnips for the joy of digging them up! So satisfying) x

God Sean, I thought my plot was bad , when I got mine , well your going to have plenty of time to do and look forward to seeing what you do with it, I wonder what old Rusty would have made of it. 😢, glad to see your settling down and enjoying being back in Wales. Enjoy your new plot. 🙏

I just got my forever plot as well. Its surprising how quickly you get it cleared . Hard rewarding work. I always feel like it's God's will.

Hello Sean, Chia pudding is good. Its chia, milk (almind is fine), fruit, and sweetener what ever you like.. Chia seed is full if protein. I think a tbsp has 170 calories. You ask what we were having for breakfast, my usual is bullet coffee. My recipe-22 oz fresh brewed coffee, 2 tbsp grass feed butter (the lovely Irish or an orgsnic one), touch of sea salt, touch of cinnamon, touch of stevia, and 2tbsp heavy cream I follow an intermittent faating program. The fat keeps me full until noon or 1pm when I have next meal which is left ovets or breaskfast omellet and sauaga. Coffee folliowed by ice water. Probably I drink half s gallon a day. Happy you wrre able to get your plot. I can tell you are going to enjoy it ! 😊

You are a tougher soul than I. Just watching the video of your new allotment made my knees and back hurt.

I am surprised the council did not clear the rubbish from your plot or insist the previous owner to clear it .The brambles will be a nightmare to clear .Sheds seam ridiculous price there too unless they arrive already fixed or do you have to build it from flat pack ? I just wish you best of luck in sorting that land Sean .

Your question on what we do at Easter. Well I went to our sunrise church service down on the beach near Bournemouth. Sadly it was very windy and no sun rising it was too overcast. We have had some stunning ones in the past. Then I cooked up bacon for everyone that went. Your plot looked like ours when we first took on one years ago. Took quite a while to clear all the grass and rubbish and even though we didnt get it till early may we still managed to have some good crops. A nice project for you. Stunning position

Hope you kept all those cardboard boxes cors you’re going to need em if you are doing no dig👍👍👍 Crumbs, it looks super challenging and then some!

Hi, Sean, can I make an advice- keep all wood you find in allotment area, and make everything possible from it- boxes vs containers, compost area frames, passways etc...

I think what you thought was celery may well me flat leaf parsley or possibly corriander...but more likely Parsley....you have your work cut out Sean...it will help get you fit though!

@anniemac3075

2 ай бұрын

I thought it was Parsley too.

I love the plot, so much possibilities. Yes hard work, but the result will be more then worth it❤Brambles are a pain though, they can knock down walls!

We have a similar breakfast here in Oregon US. We use steel cut oats (supposed to be less processed) in water and heat up add kefir, blueberries, grapes and sometimes strawberries. Keeps us going till late afternoon. Great vlog enjoy immensely.

Hi Sean i have oats for breakfast with dried cranberries, sunflower hearts, pumpkin seeds and raisins sometimes i add dry chopped figs nice and filling. Glad you got a allotment yes it needs work but dont they all and you have such a wonderful view. My husband is in charge of the allotment now i grow in the garden it just got to hard for me in the wheelchair so i have raised beds and my 6X10 greenhouse to keep me occupied. Could you use some of the materials at the allotment to make a small cold frame even as a starter untill you get a greenhouse it would be great to keep young plants in untill the ground is ready? I look forward to seeing it unfold.

I just sprinkle chia seeds on salad, that way they absorb the salad dressing and have flavour. I don't bother soaking them.

You've certainly got your work cut out there Sean, but you look very happy, being in the place you want to be and with those views. And at least here you don't have a train going by every 10 minutes. Will be interesting to follow your progress 😁

Sean can you not search Marketplace and often people give away slabs etc. Save you a fortune and recycle too. To get space people may even drop them off to you. At my old house i got some massive pavement slabs fir under my big shed i had and 2 different coloured skabs of same type all given away by various people that made a super staggered patio at the top of the garden with a fabulous iron pergola that was being thrown away!!

Just sprinkle chia seeds on your food like pepper. You don’t have to soak them. You can also plant them and eat the sprouts or let grow into a plant. They used to sell chia seed “pets”-chia growing in animal shaped pots.

I love it Sean! OK it's not very spiffy looking right now, but with the eye of faith, and with support to control the dreaded Japanese knotweed, I know you'll make it beautiful and full of good eating. The view is spectacular. As you say, the secret is just to start in one corner and go steadily, not too much at once. Here's my two pennyworth on what I love to grow, and that saves us a bunch of money: asparagus, sugar peas, mangetout, beetroot, raspberries, all kinds of weird brassicas, rhubarb, gooseberries, French and runner beans, LEEKS! (the best for us are Bleu de Solaise). I left out the tomatoes because I know you don't like them. I have to admit I've thrown in the towel with potatoes and carrots, never had a lot of success with them. I love having a go with things I've never tried before: this year it's couve tronchuda and minestra nera, I hope they're as good to eat as they are hard to pronounce.... Happy growing x 😀

We blitz brown & golden flaxseeds in a blender to break the shell and mix them with chia, we store the mix in the fridge in a plastic tub. Every morning we sprinkle them on shredded wheat, muesli or porridge. Minimal faff. My ‘life’s too short’ list is definitely growing.😂by the time we’ve added milk to the cereal & had a couple of coffees, that’s more than enough liquid.

im so pleased for you sean......i can see you now with your cup o tea surveyin your crops!!!

Japanese knot weed has loads of health benefits and is very pricey at the health food shop could make it pay for the headache of keeping it under control. I apologize my optimism even annoys me at times. Lemonade from Knott weed. I love the allotment and am so excited to see what you make of it.

I will be interested to learn how you get rid of the Japanese Knotweed

I’ve just started intermittent fasting. So nothing but water from evening meal around 8pm until 12 noon. Today I drank 3ltr water and had a whole net of tangerines My evening meal will be a whole lettuce, shavings of carrots, chopped tomatoes, half a cucumber, a few celery sticks, sliced bell peppers, asparagus.. sprinkle of ground pumpkin, sunflower seeds, nuts.. make wraps from the romaine lettuce leaves..

You have a lot of hard work it will be interesting to see it wen it’s up and running ❤

I'm so excited for you, such a wonderful blank page to work with!!! We're currently battling Oregon's tenacious brambles/blackberries that took over a good portion of our garden last Fall. The Japanese Knotweed...we eat those young shoots!!! Free food that can be harvested over and over!!! Eventually the root exhausts itself and quits producing. The same with brambles, keep cutting the young shoots back and eventually the root has nothing more to give. Those young shoots, dried, make a lovely tea! Good luck! Looking forward to your very rewarding garden adventure!!

Great Ariel shot of the allotment showing the layout, definitely a little and, often as it is going to need an awful lot of cleanup and clearing but you won’t need the gym….lol you will have a fantastic view with the shed at the top and be able to survey your hard work and toil as the allotment comes to life. Look forward to the video progress. On another note yep…that breakfast definitely looked like frog spawn …yep definitely a toilet job …just plain oats for me . 👍 Another lovely video thank you.

Ooo, the possibilities! I love the planning part as I always find it to be a creative outlet. But, as you know, getting a workable third by May should be the ambition, with the rest cut back and recovered to reclaim in your own time! I am almost tempted to drive over and join you with this one😆 (almost)

Hurrah so glad you're back on a plot. Does look to be a really decent size that! I'm sure you'll have it up to spec in no time!

Wish I lived nearer Sean, I’d of loved to come and help you clear all that rubbish. How satisfying. Love it 🥰 your so optimistic 💙😘

Wow! That amount of work would put me off but I’m glad you can see past all that to what it can become. You should see if you can get a few locals or members of a scout group or something similar to help you clear it. 😊

I’m in love with the view from the top of your plot. I wish you joy and contentment as you wrangle it to your needs.

Great plot. Hope it brings you lots of joy and veggies. I got a plot 3 weeks ago so we are both starting from scratch.

Sean, throw that in a blender and turn it into a smoothie. Delicious! That is a glorious view! That is a nice-looking plot, Sean. Take your time and make it your own. Like you said, it will be your forever plot. Looking forward to watching your progress, and remember your back in the process. I love mint too. Yes, Sean. Plant some vegetables while you plan the plot. Yes, it is good to be back! Yes, time waits for no one! Take care

Allotment, Yikes! Breakfast, I make a big dish of cooking apples, oats,muesli , mixed cinnamon powder, sweetener, add water & bake. Then I microwave portions everyday as I like a hot brekkie with some LF natural yogurt. Easy , cheap & healthy.

Beautiful! What a lovely allotment, that will give you hours of fun. Birdsong, most of the twittering is Goldfinches I think but I can also hear Sparrows, a Robin and a song I associate with April, the Blackbird. Enjoy!

That allotment is oozing with prmise! You should be so lucky to have that. For starters don't buy a garden shed. If nothing else there is more than enough material lying around to make several cold frames. There is adequate good wood and many abandonned windows with intact glass. All on the ground waiting for you to pick it up!!! If you need to, google how to make garden sheds and cold frames from scrap wood and left over scraps from building sites locally which would otherwise go to a rubbish tip. YOU use them and you wil be so glad you did. You might have enough leftovers to make a small tool shed also. Once you have launched into that you will find yourself thinking "I don;'t need a 600 pound garden shed when I can make it easily for half that. And design it exactly for your own needs. All you need is a hammer and nails and some effort. Go for it, do it.

What a fantastic plot size. I moved to Canada 20 years ago from Shropshire. I have a 20 × 20 vegetable plot, but we can't start planting till after May long weekend because of frost.

OMG ! Knot weed and Brambles !!! how long to stop that returning wow.

Oh..you dont have to eat chia seeds soaked...you can still scatter them on your porridge and eat, just need to drink a little more water through the day....and you still receive the goodness they have.

You eat your oats almost the same way I do, oats uncooked, blueberries, raspberries, almond milk etc. Your plot has all kinds of possibilities, and it will be fun to watch what you do with it.

You've got a gem of a plot there Sean, views are beautiful..looking forward to going on your journey with you...I can see your vision, your hard work ahead will pay off in the end 😊

What a beautiful view Sean. Perfect to look at when you need a rest from clearing. Wondered if there were enough glazed panels to make a cold frame. Good luck with the new plot, think it's just what you need to make your new Welsh life complete.

So happy for you. I can see and feel the joy in your voice. Yes, you have quite the project ahead of you but what a gorgeous view. And terraced too. Can’t wait to see your plan for this special spot! Congrats!! It will be beautiful🌻🤩👍🏻💐

I had similar clear task on my allotment but slowly and consistently I brought it back to a lovely plot and I would not be without it now, love my time on the plot. So good luck with yours it looks that it has potential 😊

During the long cold autumn and winter here in Canada we eat steel cut oats dreaming of the summer when I have overnight oats with some yogurt, assorted nuts and seeds and delicious wild blueberries or fresh peaches 😊. I’m fascinated that you ate raw oats!? Happy you feel at home in your new allotment.

Rolled oats are not raw. They've been steamed so they get soft and then rolled flat. Look up Rolled Oats on Wikipedia. I had cheese and three hard boiled eggs for breakfast. I've got work to do out at the allotment. Oats and fruit won't fill my gas tank. Carbs + fatty liver = deadly combo.

How green is my valley 🎉 Beautiful views. I hope you enjoy your plot. I often enjoy making smoothies out of frozen berries , a small cucumber , celery and a half of an avocado blended with water for my first meal of the day but it's a lot warmer here in Cyprus.

I bought a hollyhock and petunia instead of an Easter egg. I can't really chocolates for my health. Weather was actually OK for once

Oh Sean that’s not a bad plot at all really - good bones. I dug up 30 brambles off my half plot when I took it on. Lots of bits to sort through and scavenge and you’re not afraid of a bit of hard work. And what a view 😊 A pad of paper to draw a plan and a large mug of tea and you’re off - you’ll love it 😻

Amazing views. Summer will be lovely. Will watch with interest.

We thought the same thing about the chia seeds! We just sprinkled them on fruit and cereal til they were gone much like you did on Sunday . You'd surely still get any healthy benefits. That's a nice size plot and handy with the site shop. Is that the site shop you filmed a few weeks back ? There was some sort of a construction at 15 35 but is it next door?

Nice you got your allotment! Just watched a UK forager. Knotweed sprouts are eatable. Said they are sour like rhubarb. But not to throw in compost, even a piece will root. Keep those onions in the dark till you can plant them. I organize my seeds by season. Cool spring crops vs summer crops.

That looks like an interesting challenge--love the drone shots. Looks as if there's lots of rubbish, but some bits and pieces you can probably use too. I wonder if any of that broken up greenhouse will be reusable?

"As you can see it's in 4 tiers..." and you should be running away...in tears...that looks like a NIGHTMARE....!!!!

Bore da Sean, I have every faith that you will tackle all this. I love how you can see past what lies before you & you have a vision & for us, your viewers, it will be wonderful to watch this precious piece of Welsh hillside slowly be transformed. I doubt anyone e that watches your channel is here for a quick fix & those wise words Slow & Steady Wins The Race are very true. I don't know why but this quote by Martin Shaw came into my mind d when I was listening to that lovely birdsong & looking at those views. I hope you have a lovely day. Annie🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 "To be in touch with wilderness is to have stepped past the proud cattle of the field and wandered far from the twinkles of the Inn's fire. To have sensed something sublime in the life/death/life movement of the seasons, to know that contained in you is the knowledge to pull the sword from the stone and to live well in fierce woods in deep winter. Wilderness is a form of sophistication, because it carries within it true knowledge of our place in the world. It doesn't exclude civilization but prowls through it, knowing when to attend to the needs of the committee and when to drink from a moonlit lake. It will wear a suit and tie when it has to, but refuses to trim its talons or whiskers. Its sensing nature is not afraid of emotion: the old stories are full of grief forests and triumphant returns, banquets and bridges of thorns. Myth tells us that the full gamut of feeling is to be experienced. Wilderness is the capacity to go into joy, sorrow, and anger fully and stay there for as long as needed, regardless of what anyone else thinks. Sometimes, as Lorca says, it means 'get down on all fours for twenty centuries and eat the grasses of the cemetaries.' Wilderness carries sobriety as well as exuberance, and has allowed loss to mark its face" Martin Shaw

Wow, this allotment is a complete mess. If it was my decision I'd let go of it and get a refund. Time is much better spent on your own home garden than this. Plus, Sean, you should start considering your health before you embark on a huge physical challenge like this.

I can see why you chose this particular plot because the view is wonderful and the bird’s singing makes it more peaceful. I wish you every happiness and success.
