Title: What I did today
Post by: Squash64 on February 26, 2012, 13:52:50

Arrived on the site at about 8:45 this morning.

Fed two of the cats.

Watched someone demolish an old shed and then made him a cup of coffee.

Went to my plot and fed another three cats.

Found a phone number for a plot holder of a man who does rotovating.

Spoke to another plot holder about a tree.

Let a plot to a newcomer, did all the paperwork,  showed her where various things were on the site and advised about where to start.

Dealt with a complaint that someone had taken a fork off another plot.

Arranged for a manure delivery for a plot holder.

Filled in tenancy agreement for plot holder and got him to sign.

Spoke to two separate plot holders about rent.

Got some potatoes from the stores for a plot holder.

Received a delivery of cat food from our lovely Cats Protection lady.

Arranged for some slabs to be laid for the new greenhouse.

What did I do on my plot?  Apart from feeding the cats - absolutely nothing!

Betty, that sounds just like our visits to the plot. The car park is in one corner of the site and our plot is diagonally opposite at the furthest end! I guarantee that there's always something to check up, or someone wants to see us - or we need to see them - so by the time we get to the plot we've already been on site for up to an hour!

(I don't turn compost bins either - no time!!)
