I only have my half plot because one of our 2-plot men gave it up. He happens to be my next door neighbour so he knows I'm serious about veg growing and have tamed a large (and now non-existent) lawn to do it. I have half because although I was top of the list I knew my friend (2nd and only other occupant of list) was very keen so I agreed to take half. Another chap has 2 but keeps them immaculate so why should he give one up? I'm grateful to Him Next Door but told him I didn't want him to feel pressurised by the secretary to let one plot go. He and the other bloke had kept the ground cultivated and in good heart when there was no waiting list.
Difficult really. I'm glad he gave it up but I wouldn't have asked him to.
