Gotcha :) Our plot backs onto the houses at the other end of Santa row. We have a big hedge at the front & the entrance to ours is the black metal gateway. We were warned off the plots by the railway cos of the poor soil.
I don't have a tenancy agreement yet, which is a wee bit of a worry. I can understand why tho. They said we could have it rent free til Jan cos it was in such a state & I spose if they give us a tenancy agreement then the council will know it's taken so they'll have to charge. It's just that when we took the plot, we couldn't see how big it is & now we've cleared it, it's turned out that it's a double plot, they might only let us have half. That would be a pain since the gate is in the middle & the paths etc are all laid out. I have tried to clarify but can't get a definite answer apart from `the previous guy wanted a double plot'. I'm hoping he's just worried about telling us it will cost double (which is fine), rather than not wanting to tell us we can't have it all!
I'm sure there will be plenty of seed swapping. I've witnessed chicken exchanges already LOL. Gutting - we can't have any (although OH says no way anyway, so perhaps for the best) in case the people in the houses complain then no one will be allowed any.
Will look out for you this week - we walk past your plot to get to ours when we come in the side gate ;D
