I knew I'd heard about this chap before - I'm surprised he wasn't on that strange allotment TV programme.

It rang bells with me that's why I did a search............maybe he just wants the publicity as the stories don't marry. In 2011 he was sticking up for other plot holders.

Another weird thing - he spent �600 on 11 fruit trees �55 a tree - for puny little things like that. Pull the other one............

Thinks to self .... why are these people not sticking up for him now,surely that would be the honourable thing to do

[Bigmallly]

Well he's had 20 pages of publicity on the vine. I hope he's grateful for our contribution...........

For the record, this was another thread about him

His trees don't seem to have grown at all in the last couple of years!

It's a lot of trees for such a small area, they'll cover the entire thing when fully grown.

And block light plus sap up energy from other plots. As it says allotment I'm assuming that there are more people using the land? We all know how hated trees can be in the wrong place. Wish I could just plant veg leave them and just harvest as this guy seems to want to do. But I don't think this guy has even considered the impact on others. He also wants freeish legal assistance! Plus he has had lots of free publicity on the Vine.................

Sorry I have some fruit trees planted plus will be getting some fruit bushes in this year but they will be situated where the other plot holders can help themselves plus not impact on their plots. It's a thumbs down from me on this one.

The trees do look a bit small assuming he did plant the 5 years ago that soil must be dead NOT!

I know there'd been a story on him before on here but I couldn't find it!

It says he got it in 2007 but by the looks of it only planted the trees very recently. If he didn't cultivate it up to that point then he deserved to be kicked off.
Trees are not an allotment.

I assume the fact he's looking for a freebie solicitor is the reason for him wanting press coverage again.

Assuming his plot is/was on a site near his home

Could it be this one over by the hedge?
