Yes, and me big oak trees (and their friends) love to drink all that lovely clean water after it s been 'filtered' on the journey.
You have a soakaway and you still need to get it emptied?:eek::eek::eek:
Our one in France has yet to be emptied! It exits to a pipe which goes 250 feet and then joins the "mains drain" which isn't really hence we were obliged to put in a septic tank.
We had it inspected last summer and it was deemed OK. It went into the ground in 2008.
Admittedly we don't use it all year round, But there are two of us and, Covid and Brexit permitting, we have been there six months every year since 2015.
Friends in the village, who are there far more than us and had their house built by the same people as us, at least a year before ours, have also never had theirs emptied. And theirs exits like yours under the land in a typical crowsfoot.

Me no unnerstan!:confused:
 
So a sunny but windy morning, correction lunchtime, to you all!!!:):)
Shopping been delivered, just about to get on and order the timing belt and water pump kit for W's Pluriel so I can get it done as fast as poss.
Might also have to see if I can find a pergola to work under if this flipping weather continues to rain on us!:rolleyes:
Ideally I'd like one big enough to put a Disco under but that'd have to be well big!:eek:
Anyone else got one they coudl tell me about?
I'd be ENORMOUSLY grateful!!!;););)
All the best all for a happy Fridi!
Cheers
Stan!

I call mine a garage:p:D



Is W good with the spanners too;).

I already have a double garage, but it's full and blocked in by trailer and other vehicles, and to answer Q 2, NOOOOOOOOO!
Though she does occasionally help me. She did actooly hold a spanner for me last summer when I was changing the ATF temp unit.
So not "good", can very rarely be called upon to "help" but she hates it. ;)

Still have a certain amount of solids build up :eek:.

We had ours emptied for the first time after 10yrs, then again after a further 4yrs? The only reason we figured was.
1. I retyred
2. 1 summer was particularly wet so the walnut tree didnt need as much fluid.

The tree sits right next to it and produces lovely nuts (according to the locals who collect them) always holds it leaf longer than the others. Ours is an old concrete box in the ground which is probably very leaky:D.

Yours drains to the main drain? why have it? the tank will never fill if its draining to a main drain but will if the "soakaway" cant soak away if the soil wont take it:).
