Yes it is the same plot. However, I wrote to the owner and said that I'd never had to pay for a garden before, on the understanding that I kept them neat and tidy, keeping the grass and weeds down,... He said that we could work out a "good deal" when he gets back. "Anything is possible". I think the owner was paying for a lot of the maintenance himself so that might have been a factor. The neighbour provides water free of charge to a tank on the site and electricity in exchange for being able to deposit cuttings from his trees and bushes in a corner of the plot. There is also a place to store tools. The soil seems to be quite good apart from the tiny stones in places. The co-gardener, a Spanish lady, seems to be really nice and was really keen for us to share the plot with us. We'll see how it works out.
