Just pop round local stables and ask, then you can choose which one has best access and muck, they’re glad to get rid, we even have a tipper transit deliver fresh once a week but prefer the well rotted which was available within 5 mile

I wish that load was on my allotment.

Old landies good for allotment , insurance £100yr

I had to relocate the fuel pump earth connection on the 101 yesterday. It conked out giving me the chance to walk five miles home(it was shorter in my head...) to grab the BM and tools(that i'd recently removed from the 101) and go back to fix...
