    Glad I don't have to pay for green collection! I too struggle to compost everything. I have 3 big black composters. I can fill my green bin cutting half the lawn. I asked the council for another green bin and was told no. You're right though about the compost. The recycling centre here sells it and in the summer it looks like it sells really well.....so why not collect more stuff to make it??

    Our local authority gives away the compost it makes (at least last time I got any it did). Initially it was as much as you wanted for free but of course people started turning up with trailers etc and some were reportedly selling it on blended with top soil. Last time I went it was limited to four bags/person and was very good as a soil conditioner. Worked wonders on some of my clay soil when mixed with some sharp sand but it smelt awful for a few weeks.

    Bonfires can be a nuisance and being aware of that I always make sure that it isn't going to cause a nuisance i'e not during the day, no washing out anywhere in sight, only burn very dry material to minimise smoke etc. I always warn my closest neighbours to check that they are OK with me having a bonfire as I wouldn't want to become public enemy number 1:rotfl: Following those rules I don't think a well staged bonfire should cause any more nuisance than the clouds of acrid smoke that seem to emanate from many a barby that I've seen and which seems to be perfectly acceptable.

    Many people think that with smokeless zones etc that bonfires are illegal but in fact if they were illegal then barbys would also fall into that ban. It is the nuisance factor that comes into play and as such, regular poorly managed barbys during summer evenings, are far more of a nuisance than a good bondy.

    I rest the case for the defence m'lud:rotfl::rotfl:

    I really don't like the smell of a BBQ, but having a bonfire only at certain times is not always possible, when we were burning large amounts of gorse I phoned the fire brigade before lighting it so that if there was a report they knew that it's a managed fire and can cancel the call at the station that said I would always consider any neighbours enjoying a nice day in their garden or having their washing out.

    Have to agree with this Dopey, the amount of rads that are replaced because people don't realise how radweld works is :eek:, only use as a quick short term fix but if your at the stage of needing radweld you need a new radiator.

    I had a leaking radiator and used rad weld, it lasted another 6 years till I sold the car. That was in the days when I was a mechanic, many moons ago.

    Good afternoon :)

    Off to catch up from last night - only 17 pages to catch up on :)

    Just got my refund through from Sada for the beans form the delivery the other day - they delivered a 4 pack instead of the 6 pack, although they did only charge £1. Full £1 refund so 4 free tins beans :D
    Smile :) and hopefully the world will smile back
