Sweat was flying and spade was flailing. For about half an hour. Then he walked past our plot and spoke to us and said that he was making a path in and he had planted potatoes 
Then he went. We came home from holiday yesterday and checked our plot and looking over to his plot. Nothing has changed This a repeat performance of the last three years.
The plot next to ours has had nothing done for two years. No one has come and cleared it and the weeds are waist high again this year. On the saturday before we went on holiday we were weeding ours when a man and a teenager walked along the path to look at the plot next to ours. Because we did not recognise them and the shed was open. I walked up to the shed and asked them if they were looking to get an allotment. He said no the barren plot next to our was the childs dad's and they were just looking at it. I asked a couple of questions and the next thing the chap asked was "did I come here every day, was I around all the time" That made all the alarm bells ring and we brought our petrol strimmer home that night as he was eyeing it up. It has made me very uneasy now. There is another plot where it used to be really productive and the chap died and a couple took it on and grassed it all over and we never see them from one month to the next. What a waste of a good plot. They mow it occasionally. It is unproductive. No one seems to do anything about it. If you pay your rent I dont think there is anything the Council can do.
