I hate to think of something like that going into landfill though. It seems such a waste.
When you're stuck at work the sun shines and you think of all the jobs you have to do around the garden. Then come the weekend it pours down...
It's only £20 per week to hire, so not going to break the bank if we need to do that. But sods law I'll hire it and then it will rain all week....
Thanks... unfortunately that's already sold. I txt him last week. :-(
I'm looking there too, trouble is there's not a lot nearby. Im sure something will turn up...
Long shot I know, especially as I'm not in a metropolis... With lots of garden walls to repair a cement mixer would make life a lot easier!
