We always make a rough plan of what will grow where on our plot, but we invariably change it as we plant out seeds and seedlings out to see how things fit in.  Eventually we have a proper plan which we can view the next year so we don't duplicate the same space for the same veggie.  We do try to rotate as best we can. 

I expect we will be growing all the main things we grew this year, but change a few varieties.  I will grow some different varieties of squash seeing as how I have fallen in love with squashes and pumpkins.  We have our Japanese onions in and are waiting for our shallots and garlic so they too can go in over the winter. 

On my plot at the moment I have leeks, turnips, savoy cabbages, some late peas, beetroot, a few potatoes left and some lettuces and brussel sprouts and not forgetting my perpetual spinach.  I have got some seed catalogues to look at but we haven't chosen anything yet to order.  I admire anybody who is so well organised but my top priority at the moment is our daughters engagement party at our house on the 5th November.  Next week is baking week, first on the list are the pumpkin pasties, EJ posted.  :) busy_lizzie

Sounds exciting BL  :)  I've got some of my seeds already and loads in my tin but I have been doing some swops and have reduced my stock at bit.  My main order from Kings hasn't arrived nor has me order from Suttons (so slow).  Trouble is I forget what I've ordered, worry that I forgot to order it, then order it again just in case  ;D  Suttons have got seeds packaged for children and I've ordered some of those and a Link a Bord box for my great nephew's 6th birthday.  Hope the seeds arrive in time
I came, I saw, I composted

Lol @ forgetting what you ordered. Quite frequently our shed sales are increased by people coming in and saying ' I bought some ******* here didn't I? Well damned if I can find them now, you'd better let me have another pack'
