just jack 997 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 got a bit of a result last week, the council are digging up some flagged areas a mile or so from me so i nipped down to buy some/back pocket, kind of thing, " well its not worth it as they are cutting down on staff and any reason for the boot they will take it, "the foreman said " make a donation and i will give you the correct paper work so you are covered " " how much pal " i said " £5 " he said, , paid the fiver and loaded 100 in 3 trips 2x2 and heavy as you like, i had 70 for me and 30 for an old kid, i could easily sell them but they are sorting the paths out on the plot, also got bags of gravel from the new pebble dashing 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
