Harassment on the allotment ! Opinions please

I am being personally harassed on the allotment by the warden who was given the job as no one else put themselves forward for the post last year when my friend gave it up.

I have know this man as a previous neighbour for twenty odd years ! I always knew he had an attitude and was a nosy Parker and a potential trouble maker.  Sadly since taking on this voluntary post of warden the job has gone to his head and he is like the Gestapo ! Talk about a jobs worth !
He paroles the allotment at least three times a day (I'm told more by people who are up there longer than me) waiting to pounce on anything he can see, just so he can ' Have a word'  that's how he describes it !  He mainly picks on us female plot holders ! So clearly a coward! Unfortunately for him he didn't count on me ! Never being one to take things without a fight we are now in a very personal situation! He is making my life after five peaceful years on my plot unbearable.

I have written two letters to the council, both unanswered and he's now gloating that nothing was said to him!  Another female has also written to the council as he was rude and offensive to her too.

He has gone too far now by almost threatening in a blackmail way by holding up his mobile phone to me and saying he has a photo of me dumping rubbish from my plot over the wire fence of the wasteland (which is already full of natural composting materials as it got trees and growth there) 

The truth is I was throwing a bucket of fowl smelling water and weeds and slugs that I couldn't put in my car to take to the tip or leave on the plot. All fully compostable but nowhere to put it.

I have been advised to go to the police if the council don't do anything about it. I have called his bluff and told the council in a letter about the photo as he said in a very threatening manner that if he has to have words with me again he will send the photo to the council and accuse me of fly tipping and in his words I will be off my plot in seconds !  Is that blackmail ? Is the taking of photos on the plot without permission Legal ? 
This is now a personal case of harassment !

I would love your opinions and advise please !
Sorry this isn't the normal cheerful post but I'm sure someone out there may have similar problems with a silly little warden.

Finally over to plot 30

And goodbye to plot 19 , it was a hard slog working on that sloping plot, but boy was it hard work moving my entire plot to another !  But its finally over.

It's going to take a few months to get plot 30 in order and I'm digging for England at the moment. Yesterday I dug up a bucket full of thick and long pieces of bindweed roots just from one small area.
I know you can never truly be rid of this horrid weed, but you just have to try and conquer it or  takes over everything

I have to accept that due to the move and the adverse weather I am going to be way behind, but I have made a start. This week I planted in a raised bed what should have been three rows of carrots . It was so windy that most of the seeds got blown out of my hand so I ended up with enough for only one row ! Also planted two different types of spinach.
In a mini greenhouse in my garden at home I have also  made a start and got lots of French beans ( Blue lake and Fasold) started in the root runners. Turks Head pumpkin, tomatoes (money maker and gardeners delight) and some hot chillies. So a start has been made !

It all like a refugee camp at present, but give me a couple of months and it will look gorgeous ! Watch this space !

A lot of planning and tidying to do yet, but i'll get there. I'm so looking forward to getting it all up to standard.

 

 

 

 

 

Just an update

I am moving plots on the allotment! Mine is such a terrible shape to work and very sloping, so I have been given permission by the council to move to a flat plot which is just a big oblong area ! Yeah no more having to tackle little bits of ground here and there.

Although my plot 19 had character  and was different to any other plot I can't wait to get plot 30 into shape.  It was my daughter and her partners plot for a couple of years and they worked hard on it until their jobs gave them too little time to work it. So they gave it up this month.   I will make sure they get lots of lovely veg from me though.

We have already got a start as I only have a few weeks to move everything off my old plot.
I have moved the Tayberry and my lavenders, They will look very nice along the edge of my new fruit bed. Next to move is the fruit trees and black current and the red gooseberry .
I only hope they all survive.

I will post photos as soon as it all looks better and the shed and greenhouse has been moved over.
