well done!! your going to love it. keep phoning politely to ask how the lists moving, til they're sick of the sound of your voice. here's hoping for a quick turnover of plots, and a cracker for you when you get one.

 :-\

I was 18th on a list for a while, total time on list was 3 years. People did seem to drop off the perch quite often though! It seemed to change all of a sudden in the last year, people changed their mind/got a plot elsewhere/died etc...so stay positive!!!

 ;D

thanks hunny, i'm gonna come back and midnight and raid some of your summer houses.

had a blast this afternoon, thoroughly enjoyable couple of hours.  you're all potty and i felt right at home  :P

gonna give the burd a ring and go look at the place, and make appropriate appreciative cooing noises. 

when i got back either a small tornado or small child had run through the garden, stuff all over the place  :o

i'm gonna nick a couple of bits of next doors garden til they move in and stick the new babies in there.  my thought process is that i'll be keeping it tidy for them.   ;D

I think it could be a lot sooner MrsKP.  Every year around rent time, you usually find there is a bit of an exodus from sites when people decide they have taken on too much and don't want to pay their money to renew their tenancy.  I would also keep plugging away and make yourself known.  One of these days you will have one.  :) busy_lizzie

had a letter back from No. 2 potential plot.  they're waiting list is CLOSED !  and No. 3 hasn't bothered to return any phone calls so they don't deserve my enthusiasm and effort.   ;D

some judicious replanning of the garden plot will be needed if i don't get a real one by this time next year.  i can see paths being dug out cos i've just NOT GOT ENOUGH ROOM lmao

carrot bed will be moving too as i've got great plans for a lean-to against the shed.

how can they close a waiting list!! even if your number 99 i think you should be registered as in the queue somewhere. mays a busy time, could be number three assosiations secretary has been busy with their plot, lost your letter, forgot to reply........keep annoying them (in the nicest possible way), or go a walk down and show your face. YOU NEED A PLOT. (or you're going to have to build a roof garden). good luck.
