Default Fruit cages - home made or 'off the shelf'?

The "business" but expensive, although one does get what one pays for in
this case. We brought a 6 metre square one from them last year and are
rather impressed with it. Wasn't even that difficult for the two of us to
erect either.
We shall see how easy it is to move shortly!

I've looked at those to but thought mighty expensive.
Bob do you have yours on the allotment?
I'm very tempted sigh


Not tempted by mine I hope. :-)

Yes, covering our brassicas at the moment.
We did intend to get another plot for fruit alone but are having second
thoughts now. How much fruit can two people eat!
We treat our allotment as our hobby so considering what others pay for, say,
a season ticket for Premier football or annual golf fees it's not that
expensive especially spread over the years it will be useful.
