The side access path is already at the level of the house so it
shouldn't be a problem. I don't mind a bit of the "bad" soil in there
to build the other side up but yes I think some of it will need to be
taken away so I guess I need to think about hiring a skip or something
at the same time. ...or using some kind of "great escape" arrangement
:-)


I cannot somehow or other, see your neighbours standing by and watching as
great clumps of clay fall from the bottom of your trousers* as you 'stroll'
across their lawns.
