    Apparently someone told the idiot in the adjoining allotment that it was okay to dump his **** on our allotment!!!!!!

    What the @%*k, we've got a job and a halve clearing our own site!

    We're getting there , the site is almost cleared and the "****" has been returned to its source.

    I just hope the site next door takes the hint, Carol is livid and looking for some conflict (she's the one who cleared it all)

    Vince,Carol..It'll be worth it when you start to harvest your crops and before you know it you'll be exchanging produce with the bloke in the next plot I shouldn't wonder :D

    Agree totally with Paladin.

    It is much better to swap a tomato in this life, than an insult.

    My, that almost sounds philosophical.

    Good Luck and I'm sure you'll all be mates chatting over long summer nights of comparing sizes of your marrows!

    Life is too short for bad feeling.

    How about some photos Vince?!

    Just so we can all 'virtually' pull along with you in your mega task ! We may not be able to physically help you and Carol, but we can make appropriate encouraging noises!

    Show us your shed building too!

    If your next door plot person is around, make em a cuppa and gently explain to them why you were upset the other day - many a war could have been avoided with an earl grey and a few chocky hobnobs.

    MMMMm HOBNOBS !

    I cant believe the ignorance, laziness and brass neck of some people. Things like that get me really angry too.

    The shed is almost finished, unfortunately it won't be totally re-cycled timber but the walls, windows and floor will be.

    I'll post a piccy when I've got it erected on site.
