Many members will have seen the press coverage of the Council introducing new rules about allotments
Over the last week I have been discussing with a local councillor the implications of this
I now have in writing a list of answers to my questions,basically there should be no problem for existing tenants ,new tenants will be able to have pigeons,no licence for pigeons is required
One problem is that there is no joint tenancies of allotments so if the registered tenant passed away the Council have the right to evict any partners from the allotment

I received a message today to say that Norman had passed away this morning
I first meet Little Norman ,as he was affectionately known, in the early 1970s when I was a surveyor with the local authority and Norman was a bricklayer with them
He then started helping out the late Banty Emerson ,although not a partner he helped out a lot
Norman eventually flew on his own in Billy Row HS and for a while was Secretary of the club
