The Milton Bryan compost pile gets beyond a joke. Perhaps it wasn't such a good idea after all to get the cattle to add to it, thinks OH.

Thank goodness the lads still had the old s**tshifter (politely known as Dungledozer)

Dear Alan, why you should have such little faith in our rather large compost heap, i really don't understand.
I would have thought by now you would know that i like to make a quick buck, and as the compost heap is totally Aminopyralid free, i think there might be a large market for this in a very short time.
I think i might e-mail my mate Monty, i have heard he might be interested, especially now, with his new contacts. 8) :lol:

As for the DungleDozer, the two gentlemen onboard really do look like O.C and myself, as we did quite a few years ago, that is. :)
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.

Even Medwyn has to admit that the Milton Bryan manure is the best he's ever had.

I forgot to tell Medwyn what ever you put in the compost grows, as you can se by his hands. :lol:

So be warned fellows, if you have been handling the compost and get taken short, be very careful. :shock: :lol:

Hi OH,

Sounds like your beans are doing well,

Do you start them off in pots or do you plant straight into the ground?

Morning Donedigging, i started most of them in pots.
I did sow thirty directly outside, but these were eaten by the slugs just as they were coming through and i didn't notice, so i started more off in pots.
Kind Regards, Old Herbaceous.
