What bugs me is the charge for sewage when you water the garden.

Off the subject, but reading through the rules reminded me that we are supposed to "keep every hedge...properly cut and trimmed..." This is a complete impossibility because the hedge along my plot is about 18' high, mature willows and hazels and blackthorn, fountains of brambles, saplings and suckers marching towards my plot. It's as much as I can do to keep them at bay.Another rule is "...not to cut or prune any timber...." which perhaps lets me off.It's quite interesting to have read them again.
That's interesting, unwashed. I suppose it was their using the word "prune" that distracted me, making me think of loppers and secateurs. So I can carry on cutting beanpoles as long as they are not from a oak. I did "prune" some ash to make a grandson a bow, though......
Except that English yew was no good and they used imported wood!
Wow! Interesting again.I read on Wiki "Ash trees are also perfect material for old fashion shafts for bow and arrows", which could well be incorrect, but there is a huge ash tree in the corner of our allotment site, so I went for it.
