We have a member on our lottie field who suffers from some form of muscle
problem. Most of the time he is fine, but can suddenly be taken with sever,
long lasting pain. Everyone knows this. Despite it, he spends a lot of
time on the field and his plot is very well run.

He has just come back after a spell in hospital to find that some bar***ds
have been on his plot and "acquired" the two climbing roses that he had
planted to grow up the supports of his sunshade, all of his yellow raspberry
canes and had also made an attempt to remove his plum tree, breaking the top
off and leaving it half out of the ground.

They were obviously people who knew his plot well, i.e. "friends", as they
knew just what to take [and left the red raspberries, so they knew which was
which.

That is not going to make for friendly relations on your site knowing it was
probably a fellow allotment gardener that did it although I would suggest
they will use the plants elsewhere. Anyone with another plot on another
site?
