    Fly tipping will just increase :eek:

    Sil had 2 skips last week to take away top soil £300 :eek:

    Bags down inside of trousers as in The Great Escape ;) and walk the dogs :rotfl::rotfl:
    Totally, why dont they realise that?? To be honest, every time I go in, it does seem to be full of commercial vans. Just ban cars etc with sign writing on or just everyone but me really!
    I was thinking though, is it illegal to flytip soil?? Its just like you are helping the landscape really :cool:
