was just wondering ?

Now that's got me wondering even more

In what context Grock?

in the context on your allotment,are they rules to follow or a guide line?

i guess its there for guidance.... subject to interpretation by the commiteee... unless you can sucessfully argue that what theyve done is unconstitutional

do you have a "hypothetical" case to air?

Wikipedia says "A constitution is a set of laws that a set of people have made and agreed upon for government—often as a written document—that enumerates and limits the powers and functions of a political entity. These rules together make up, i.e. constitute, what the entity is."

In my words a single big word meaning the rules of a Society.

"subject to interpretation"
mmmmm very interesting.pity a member had already told me what was going on and i knew what the outcome was going to be ,didnt think people would be so scared of a young woman,but it was very interesting.

They feel threatend love, that's all. They're scared of anything new that might rock their narrow little minds. Plus, they're scared of learning anything new cos then they may have to change their way of thinking. Dont sweat it sweetie. It could be quite fun

What have you been up to then Grockie?

OH, it can't be anything Grock or Lizzie have done because they clearly said it was a "young woman".

Runs and hides wearing disguise.

Borscht again!

Lizzie and Grockie.....I don't think your committee have minds do they? or very tiny ones, that they are out of.....
Cheers

Hi Grock,

My take on any Allotment Society Constition / set of rules, They are there to protect the members from the committee and likewise to protect the committee from the members, so what part of your constition do you want to question ?

oh Kev,it really does not matter,the rules get made up as they go along,and a lot of new members witnessed this and told me they were shocked.
