I just put anything that I shouldn't be at the bottom of the normal bin, got rid of a load of tiles for instance.

Not got a local dump though? That's what I do with bigger stuff.

I also got rid of loads of soil by putting a couple of bags at a time into the normal waste bin.

They're all lazy fuckers though, they just chuck our bins after emptying them. Hoping one hits the car so I can claim off them.

I am just going to put a couple bags at a time in the normal bin get rid of it that way till the garden waste bin is about half full maybe just below (becuase the bin men are soft cocks) any garden rubbish i have in mean time i will just bag up and leave in out house and put in bins bit at a time.

Bought some roundup today so on tuesday (my day off) be back out in the garden getting it sorayed down see how it goes.

I was thinking, I do this day in day out for a job, then I seen your strimmer fair play to you thats some graft Just dig it all out rather than using weedkiller if you plan to plant in it afterwards. Then keep on top of the weeds.

Our strimmer wouldn't work for some reason when come to use it so had to borrow the mother in laws, I am pretty sure she's never used that in a life just makes the kids do the hard labour for her as it was designed for dwarfs. Safe to say I woke up the the next day with a lot of back pain.

Just a update on the neglected garden & guess what it's getting neglected again
But this is mainly down to doing a lot of hours at work, so don't think I will be doing as much this month coming up so hopefully get back out there again.
Mrs found this which I quite want to do, see what use think:

Fantastic idea, budget rattan furniture

Not sure i'd trust myself with a saw, nails, hammer and shit loads of pallets

Saying that, it's certainly much cheaper than the proper stuff.
