Fancy a polytunnel?

After watching that last video I quite fancy a polytunnel. Although I have a greenhouse in the garden I have nothing on my allotment. A polytunnel wuold be lovely in summer to grow cucumbers and tomatoes – although I have got outdoor seeds to grow this year, a polytunnel guarantees a better crop I think.

I’m restricted to an 8×6 building on my allotment plot so the first of these would be lovely!
