I am very lucky to work for a firm that allows me to use the transport for
my own use, by arrangement of course.
A co-worker and me have ferried some lost count of loads of free manure to
the half allotment and to the house.
It is absolultely amazing how many "friends" I could have now!
They think because it is free that they can give me small talk and
perseuade me into giving them some for free.
The word free is a bit misleading. I have to buy the fuel to power both
vehicles, AND the insurance for personal use of 2 of them. Now that makes
it all a bit iffy as to whether it is economical.


If your fellow allotment users are swarming over you for free manure, just
explain what you said here, and charge them less than they would have to pay
normally, and they will still be your friends.

For some fat tart to have a go at me with her giant husband, and then asks
for my wares is a big NO.


I object to that description, whether you liked her or not, that is out of
order. You are calling her a prostitute - hope she doesn't read the group
;-) or her giant husband either..
I know you think you are talking to friends on here, but there are many
others who will read this via gardenbanter perhaps and I'm sure we have lots
of lurkers.
Just be careful about insulting a woman online who has a giant husband who
has an allotment where you are and might be lurking for one thing and the
other thing is I'd prefer it if you didn't call any woman by that sort of
name. Fat tart! FGS, Baz.
That's well out of order.
