Topic: Allotment safety

[saddad]

I still think Insurance is not the way forward, and a lot of good advice here, but as Treasurer of our society we have to have insurance, public liability, and both the National and Nottingham Associations have similar schemes which allow you to insure sheds, it works out at about £7.50 per £100 of contents pa. Your site officers should be able to advise you further. One word of warning though, if you join mid year you often have to pay an alteration fee (rip off) of about £30, just to change the paperwork!

Really fed up !!!  I forgot to put my spade away last time i was on the alloment (i know this was really  stupid)....now someone has pinched it!

It was really cheap dirty and old and i'm not really upset about the spade, it is just the thought that it maybe someone who also has an allotment who walked past my plot and thought  "i'll have that"!

Anyway, i'm dead upset!

 Think on the bright side ;) it may be a lottie holder that has put it aside for safe keeping and will return it when he/she sees you there. ;)

Changing tack slightly in reguards to allotment safety an old chap on our allotment (not too good on his feet) has large broken panes of glass -points upwards-placed all around his onion patch to stop cats digging them up, i don't want to be around if he falls!!!
