      :)

      Thanks John :)

      I must say after some of the comments that have been made i am feeling slightly guilty, even though it was not me that approached him. :(

      To be fair though from what has been said up the plots today i dont think he would have given his up and every one else was quite happily using it for him, (and laughing at him behind his back :nono: he was described as nieve and simple and that was when they were being polite :mad:)

      i think he would have just carried on and kept hoping for the best :help:

      so the next dilema is........ if people think i have jumped the queue and cheated does that mean i cant ask advice here :scratch::what:

      Win win me thinks Kaz,

      Educate each other and learn that presents come in a variety of ways.

      Keep the plot and his excuse for learning, that way you both get the best veggies for no cost to you.:dbgrtmb:

        Of course you can ask for advice on here. Just be careful you are not jeapordising your own standing on the waiting list, though.:thumbsup:

            As I see it everyone on this thread is on your side and just trying their best to protect you :thumbsup: No-one on here is judging you, just pointing out how it might be seen on the allotment by the other plot holders. So we are all with you Kaz and I think you are lucky to get the offer, so ask away we all want to help :dbgrtmb:

                so i have been to the parish council and told them that i am helping out on the plot (fully expected to be told BANNED and removal of list) she phoned Ray (plot holders name) who confirmed that i was helping him, i had to sign some paper work to say that i had a key for the plot, they said it wouldnt affect my place on the waiting list, unless Ray chooses to give up his plot and then i would inherit it as i would have worked it (this would only apply if i have worked the plot for a min of two years)

                so i can relax a little bit now :D

                      well i thought i would do a little update,
                      so nearly all of the plot has been planted, i am still fighting the endless battle with the bind weed :gaah:
                      The guy that officailly has the plot has hardly been near in 3 months i havent seen him at all in this time and the other plot holders say they see him just "Visiting" now and again but never do anything,
                      so i dont really know what his plans are other than turn up for the pickings when the crops are ready :cool:
                      when i go up next i will take some pictures of the sorta progress i have been slowly making, at least now i Know now that it is down to just me to work the whole plot hopefully if i am still up here next year things will be better organised

                        When he turns up, just pretend not to know him & start screaming.
