Bad News




I received a phone call today from the Secretary of the Horticultural Society to let me know that vandals have been at work over the allotments again, and this time have burned down the two sheds on my plot and the one on my neighbours plot. On the left is her photo of the remains, above is the potting shed when it was newly constructed in December 2007. At the moment I don't have the heart to carry on with the allotment next year. Although plot-holders pay towards the insurance for the allotments, wooden sheds are specifically excluded (and my own home insurance doesn't offer cover for anything off-site). My uninsured losses probably amount to around £2,000.
