    I've been Money Tipped!
    They do that round here also and it really annoys me. I asked someone about it once and they said, well I've gone to the trouble of bagging it, so I should be paid for it.
    When I asked if they have too much poo, they said yes of course....... and did they sell enough to make a difference... no. Jeez


    someone I know sells between 6-10 bags a week most of the year. It no way covers their costs or significantly reduces muck heap, but £6-£10 quid a week reduces bills...if you got £10 a week year round would be as good as a small free range egg gate sales unit.

    May be I should get a trailer and offer free collection or paid for delivery of a small trailer load:D


    I've just been and turned the compost and my pallets tat its made out of have turned into charcoal on the inside. Should I be worried? Too hot for safety?

    Oh yes, that's what someone does round here, a bucket load (JCB) of well rotted for about £30 I think.

    Nah, should be ok. keep an eye on it though.
    Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.
