Default Manure too fresh?

I have had 40+ open bags of horse manure delivered today, Sunday. So
it is not quite retail.
It is not rotted and looks like it was "laid" 3 or 4 weeks ago.
Ok, I got it for free but was wondering what I am going to do with
it. I think it is not weedkiller infested because there is some grass
or something growing in some of them.
What to do? I don't have a big enough area to compost it.
Dig it in or bin it?


We had some of that a few years back. Stacked the bags for a year
behind the shed (which also acted as weed supressant - although they
did grow back a lot stronger after the bags were removed!) and it was
great when we wanted to use it.

Are you sure you don't have an unused shady corner that you could pop
it onto for a while?


Thanks, but yes I am sure. No unused corners here. Apart from the spare
room! Now thats an idea. I'll run it past her when she gets home tomorrow
morning. Best time, she will agree to anything then. Just wants to kip
after the night shift.
