Lucky 13th

Soon be your turn for a plot, my friend asked about one in St Annes near Blackpool and was told he would be 40th, at least you have space in the garden.

Good Luck!!!

I have just this week got on to a list at number 7 for a site with around 25 allotments.  Council couldn't say how long it might take.

I've had my plot for 3 weeks now and the waiting list is around the 2yr mark so you can imagine how shocked I was to discover that there are several plots on the site that are not being used and haven't been for some time.  Its such a shame when there are so many eager ppl like yourself waiting.

I had to settle for a half plot coz its certainly better than no plot but now that the greenhouse is built with just the roof to go on, there isn't a lot of room for growing (granted I went a bit over the score building a 17ft x 7ft greenhouse on a 40ft x 30ft plot) so I now have to put my name back on the list for either an additional half plot or a move to a full sized one.

I hope you get something really soon coz as much as i'm bumping my gums about the politics of my site, it is an amazing adventure and will be well worth the wait.

I had a good walk around my new site yesterday and there's clearly half a dozen plots that are unused even though the records say I took the last free space.

I just think it is selfish - some people don't consider other too much huh.

Finally received the application form for an allotment going to send it first class on Monday. When i phoned up the guy said i might have to wait 18 months + for a plot. Even worse much to my horror he said i might be put back even further on the list because i don't live in a council house only  privately rented accommodation.  :x  :x

 So unfair considering 90% of council tenants have quite large gardens while i live in a terrace with a tiny patch of mud. about 1/2 metre deep and 30cm wide ridiculous.   :evil:
