.I hope you find yourself pushing at an open door - petty officialdom can crumble before determination and common sense.
Good luck :)
A result !you were absolutely right SS.My lottie neighbour was seen tonight merrily having a burn up on adjacent plot.He tells me he has persisted weekly in asking for the plot and when told no for the umpteenth time, he asked for his wife to go on the waiting list.'Only one per family' he was told.
He apparently stood his ground and asked why others were allowed as many as 4.......... at which the clerk crumbled.So all is harmonious at present and enforcing my thoughts about having our own comittee.
