A recent refurbishment of the play area at Eastoke on Hayling Island had a surplus of soil. Six bulk bags to be precise, which is about 5 tonnes if you must know (thanks for askin). With the help of a hired tipper and a group of volunteers for the grow it, cook it, eat it project we managed to get the soil piled up at stockheath lane allotment. The volunteers saw to it that one of the loads was spread at the plot. The rest is a deed for another day.
Probably still too soon to talk about the truck getting stuck for a period of time (stress levels up to eleven). Needless to say, with the help of the volunteers giving on collective push the truck was freed and I could stop panicking. Thanks for that one guys, you truly saved my bacon.
