Sounds like we're kindred souls here- I cleaned the kitchen floor and the windows for the first time in months this week- but only because it was too wet to got to the allotment!

OH YES. YES. YES yes, women have much more time to enjoy life at the plot than men. Afterall, women enjoy doing things, not just sitting in front of a telly watching football, down the pub moaning, hitting a golf ball around and then having to exagerate about how many times you hit it before you got it in a hole what other reasons are there girls........Huh??

Terrible stereotyping, my wife's been watching football since she was 9 years old (on TV and a season ticket holder) and I've never played golf in my life, booooring. She also hates gardening :'(

All woman here! And girl - not sure about 'lady' :-\

Lots of young (ish!) women on my site, but still lots of the valuable experience there also.

Stereotypes? My OH is far tidier than me - he nags me to do the housework! We both work, although I do shorter hours than he does so I get to sort out the kids needs. Our allotment was supposed to be a joint project to get us both some exercise and him something to do after his mum died last year as he had spent most weekends looking after her. He hasn't taken to it at all though so it's just me down there - and do you know what? - I like it like that!

Just read this thread, not sure where it is heading!
I'm a laydee, and like the others, my house gets abandoned for my lottie. Got my oh interested now, he's very good at building things. My friend also has a plot, but doesn't use this site.
Two more for you Jase, how many so far?

I'm glad I'm not the only one with a messy house (and nagging husband) because of my allotment.
There are lots of women at my allotment site (including me) but I was one of the first so the council workers responsible for the site thought i was a bit of a novelty then a whole lot more have arrived. They said to me one day in the summer another lady is coming to chose a plot. I said that's fantastic but it's bad news for you as we'll form a committee and then lots of problems will be sorted out......meaning things they haven't got around to doing. They looked worried after that.

I wasn't the first Female Person at my site, but there are many more now. Oldest allotmenteer regards us with gloom. He told me a few months ago that a neglected plot was going to be worked, "by someone like you....wears a skirt....no offence". My neighbour and I looked at each other: one wearing muddy jeans, the other muddy joggers.

At my new site I am the only woman and sometimes feel like the only human being - it is an open field, lovely but neglected. I've spotted three reasonably friendly men, but they are hardly ever there. A fourth can occasionally be spotted on the far side in a sunny patch, sitting in a damp armchair contemplating the chaos around him.

I left out the "but"... as in:
