councils notorious for not updating data. there's 13 on the waiting list!! but there's been 4 allocated in the last 6 months, and another two coming up soon. some people think having an allotments going to be great fun, and it is, but don't realise how much hard work it can be too. if fruit and veg grow well so do the weeds!! the first years the most difficult, trying to clear ground and plant up all at the same time. i think too many people think they've got to catch up with plots that have been worked for a long time, a near impossible task. as long as its cut back or covered so weeds don't annoy your neighbours it doesn't matter how long, if ever, it takes. it's meant to be enjoyable.
