First a lady came over to say there was a problem with the water tank
near her plot, water was spraying up all over her, broken ball valve,
so I turned the water off again and have e-mailed the Council.

Next, a chap turns up that used to have a plot last year and asked who
had been tidying up his plot. I said the Council had rented it to
someone new as I understood from the Council the plot was vacant (my
understanding was he had been chucked off because his plot was hardly
used and untidy). He replied that he was paid up 'till the end of
April etc, etc...... not a happy bunny.
I Would not like to be in the shoes of the Council person tomorrow
morning!!

Finally, noticed a sports car parked in the site, no-one else was
around nearby and none of two remaining plot holders knew who it
belonged to and both said that it had been there when they arrived, so
phoned the local Police just in case it was stolen before locking it
in the site.


Well good 'ol you
