I disposed of about 1/2 ton of rubble clay and sand from my garden in the

Hi Sarah,
For heavens sake don't dispose of it give it to Franz...he can use
some.
Have a look at this message (below) I posted awhile ago. He told me he has
only 6" of soil on hardpan and is trying to compete with his friends in
growing 'stuff'. What chance does he have?


Hi Gary,

Nice idea, but I did all that work on my garden three years ago.... You will
also note that I specifically said I was disposing of rubble, clay and
sand. None of which I think Franz would want! Not to mention the problems
of transporting it between my place and Franz's.

As it happens, approx. 1/4 of what I disposed of out of my garden went to
build a neighbours land drain, and we were both happy with the arrangement.

As for the rest of it, it was disposed of properly, and went to form land
fill caps.


Also for Matt - please note I transported all my rubble in a Ford Fiesta -
so your Micra should cope. Spread the load throughout that car if you are
worried - i.e. one sack in the passenger seat foot well, 3 in the rear foot
well, maybe 5 in the boot.


Sarah
