still no plot

So we've been corresponding with the council and sadly we haven't been offered anything worth going for and the latest is this strange one:


Hopefully I have some good news for you. The rep has located a spare plot that adjoins plot 293/1 – if the hospitalised tenant is happy for us to move him onto this plot then you will be able to stay on plot, however this would require our moving the tenants glass house and shed across onto the new half plot as legally theses structures belong to them.

One of the site reps at weald should contact you shortly if this plan meets with approval with the tenant.

So, this is a bit funny cos we can't imagine how the guy whose plot it 'actually' is would feel being next to the guys who turfed him off his plot, not to mention how awkward it might be for us all to be neighbours... And I doubt he would go for this, not that we want to either. It is a bit cryptic as  the tenants glass house and shed- well firstly both the greenhouses (plural) are on Mikey's old one and secondly which shed as there is one on ours and one on Mikey's.  It makes me laugh that The rep has located a spare plot that adjoins plot 293/1, as if all these years this mystery plot stood in some invisible, parallel universe unspottable to the average human eye, and then along comes this person who miraculously 'locates' it. It reminds me of His Dark Materials....

the hospitalised tenant is happy for us to move him onto this plot makes me imagine this really sick guy on a hostpital bed being wheeled onto his lovely new plot, while we gloat and laugh at him across the fence with our lovely plot which he has been removed from.

as legally theses structures belong to them.- not so sure about the legality, we haven't got legal aid yet....

So badly want to be back on our allotment. The pots are chitting on the windowsill, we have sweet pea and heaps of veggie seeds to sow before long and most of all my health- both mental and physical- are taking a hit from not being up there digging and sowing away.......
