Thoughts needed before I make a fuss please

phone the allotment officer politaly and ask how many places you have moved up the list since the last call and do this every two weeks ! they will either think your keen or give you a plot to stop the phone calls .

I would look at the allotment site rules Allotments were usually provided for growing food a full plot being enough to provide for a family of four

It depends if you are an Allotment Socitey under the allotment act 1950 or a Leasure Gardens. The diffreance is that on an allotment you must grow mainly food. A leasure garden you can just grow flowers or just sit in the sun if you want.

Having read all this I am wondering whether I should be making more of a fuss about my ridiculous two year waiting list!!
