Trust you Kev!  ;D

Joking apart, it puzzles me why someone would want to come on a forum, say which allotment site they were supposedly from and then make up a story about the committee being pushed out when it was obviously untrue.

I wonder if Monty will come back and explain?

What are you appologising for exactly?  That you made unattributable and unsubstantiated accusations against allotmenteers at a specific site, or that those accusations were false and malicious?

Why post this here at all?  If there is an accusation to be made against members of a site association then isn't it appropriate to bring the complaint before the committee in person and allow the members accused the opportunity to defend the allegations in privicy and with dignity?  Accusing people of coercion and telling lies is a serious matter, and if the allegations can't be substantiated there may very well be some come back if the allegations are not made in good faith.

So which site is your girlfriend's mom really from?  Birches Green or Court Lane?

Well said Elvis!

I don't know why 'Monty D' started this thread apart from wanting to cause trouble on his site.  Or his girlfriend's mother's site.  Or whatever.

Oh,by the way Squash,one of our plotholders emailed a link to me,for an allotment website he thought was great and that I would like to see....guess whose it was?  ;)

I had to have a look on your website and even your website is welcoming, it is a great mix of people you have and great facilities, am I jealous, Moi!!! well, just a little bit. I admit when i am in the wrong and you seem to have a great comunity there. Well done Betty and all of your committee members, please keep up the good work that you do.

It's our AGM on Sunday too.  I put a form up in the pavilion asking for nominations for Chair, Treasurer and Secretary.  Nobody put anything!  I suppose that means they are happy with what they've got.

Hope you got your helpers for the Shop, and good luck for Sunday.
