"Del Girl"

We were returning from today's trip to the manure lady when I noticed a man digging a trench with a mini digger at the bottom of the road and putting the soil into a lorry. It is fantastic soil down there in the valley so we stopped and I did " a bit o' wheeler dealing" and within a quarter of an hour we had a load deposited in the alley. It was so good that I thought we needed another load, so "Del Girl" sprang into action and we got it for two thirds the price of the first load. I was so pleased because it was still half the price we had been quoted by the builders merchant. John said we were just buying back our own soil as when it rains our soil is wahed down into the valley. The trailer load of manure was abandonned as John had to make two trips to the cash machine in the village. You really never know what is going to happen next here.









Any volunteers for earth moving???
