Griffin's greenclaws

There's been a lot of talk about allotments recently, not only at http://www.organiccraggle.blogspot.com/, but in the Bull's Head pub and as far afield as the Robin Hood. Organic Craggle has thrown down the gauntlet, and a challenge to find the area's largest pumpkin has been set. We have responded, and responded with vigour.

In the attached piture, you will see my comrade Gavin - a veritable gardening machine - contemplating a morass of weeds. In a matter of weeks, this area will be devoid of vegetation and will sport a brand new shed - the very nexus of the Allotment of Champions. Within months, the surrounding land will sprout forth fat orange fruit as far as the eye can see, and the day will be won.
