Just as I'm ready to start covering part of my plot with manure it's all gone! There's usually a huge heap at the entrance kindly donated by local farms but we have heavy foot and mouth restrictions in place in this area at the moment so it's anyone's guess when we'll get more, how gutted am I (but understand the caution). :cry:

Yep, fair comment, ours arrives in a shoddy tractor and a trailer that looks like it was used in Top Gear by the Stig! But it's free and I'm grateful.
