Spent most of the day feeding crap through a new garden shredder, all
I'm left with is a huge pile of cuttings that are too small to shred,
various halves of trees that are too big to shred, and dried
crap/grass.

I've made the executive decision to burn the f***ing lot, but can't
decide whether to buy an incinerator or just build a big heap on the
ground and torch it. There's plenty of stuff here that'll need sawing
up to fit in an incinerator, but on the other hand I don't want to
leave a big scorch mark on the grass (which is the only place to do it
with enough space around). Although I can live with it, it'll grow
back one day.

What's the expert opinion? Will it burn quicker if it's "free" rather
than in a dustbin with holes in? I just want shot of the lot now,
don't really care how, and balls to the neighbours they ought to be at
work tomorrow.

Our council give us a "free" garden wheelie bin.
Not in the south are you?

Yes but it's 70 quid a year for a fortnightly collection and I've
already missed 4 months of it. Most of this stuff won't fit in a bin
unless I spend days sawing it up anyway.

The bins hold quite a lot.
The joys of living in the south 'eh?

From what I've seen, they're the same size as the big black wheelies. But
you pay 70 quid and that only takes you up to the next January, whether
it's February or December. I might sign up just to get rid of the small
stuff. I'll see if I've got any garden left after my dangerous bonfire
tomorrow

Yes, they are about the same size as our northern brown wheelie bins.
I have got rid of tons of crap in them, sometimes slowly but always surely.
Sorry about the crack about the south, I'm becoming a grumpy old racist.
Make sure you have a hose pipe available to put out the fire which is going
to engulf your house :-)
Seriously ...
