Allotment etiquette

[nick the grief]

Sorry nick, but you must be a very standoffish lot in Warwickshire!!

We are maybe different from the norm (Geordies) on our site> After being there nearly six months I know each plot holder on a first name basis and they all cut across each others plot, usually feeding someones chickens or watering someone elses greenhouse plants or leeks
Everyone pops into each others hut for a cuppa or if they see you struggling with something they will offer a hand or advice. Bit like it should be really!

Bet you wouldn't say that if a makem cut acros

I can understand it if your going to look after something for some one but to walk across cos you can't be arsed to go round is just idle

I Always make a point of wandering down the paths & saying hrllo & taking the mickey but I wouldnt wander across someones plot to get to mine.

Mind you, you lot are used to being invaded, the Viking never really took off in Warwickshire

I think you are an idiot snadger and totally diagree with what you are saying like EVERY one else on here proberbly does .
I think Nick is very sociable and is a real good lad and although I think he does know everything he doesn't think he knows everything unlike some people we know (no names mentioned).
Moan over for now

Sorry Snadger but you are very wrong. Nick is spot on as usual.

Well said Adam!

OK,OK Everyones entitled to an opinion.

It would be an odd old world if everyone agreed with each other all the time

"Blessed be the peacemaker"

Ooooh I went all biblical there!!!

[Snadger]

Just re-read through the threads and I think its getting a bit too personal now!

I was having a bit of a laugh with Nic, thats all

[Nicos]

Oh dear Snadger...they did pick on you a bit last night didn't they???

To be honest, I would prefer to be in your situation where everyone gets on on the allotments to be happy enough for neighbours to be wandering through ( so long as no damage is done).
I think you are very lucky to have such a 'working' environment. Isn't this the sort of friendly attitude we would hope for in an ideal world??

Our plots are fenced off and are gated, so there is no problem for us, but there is a path along the top and botton ends for access ( and a good nosey at what others are up to!!)
I would be very annoyed though if someone were to wander through the plot( if it were open plan )and cause damage to the crops.

[nick the grief]

Dispite our differences I have to agree with you one the last Snadger,

I hope It wasn't coming across as a personal attack, It's just the blunt Yorkshire ancestry that come to the surface every now and again.

I took it all in good part and Yes Coventry is near hear but it's West Midlands not Gods county - Warwickshire

I Hope that the problem could be solved amicably - it may be as you said the previous people had a bit of an understanding & it's just become custom & practice to nip across the plot.

Still Water under the bridge etc.
To quote from SHakespeare .... well sort of

I've got broad shoulders, I can take it!

The annoying thing was I was stone cold sober when this healthy(unhealthy?) repartie was gong on!

If the family history is to be believed One of my lot sold some land to Bill Shakespeares Dad

Mind you on another thread I've got a one armed lead thief & some one how was arrested for stealing womens clothing

[number 1 suspect]

Nothing like a nice strong minded discussion. Steady people. Pistols at dawn Just dont walk across my patch unless your bl**ding lots. Good for the soil :-)

Number 1 Suspect, I won't walk on your plot as it seems Snadger won't mind if I walk all over his plot
But if someone walks on my feilds or the allotments they won't come out alive I can tell you
