He said he had spent £20,000 hiring a small excavator to dig out a large
area to the side and rear of his home. Do you not think he deserves everything he gets, and more! £ 20,000 for digger hire! either a gold plated digger or a very slow operator -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |

The news said he had bought an excavator for £20000. The first line of my reply is copied and pasted from the link which was provided in the original post. The News may have stated differently. If you care to look at the link you will see that I am commenting upon what I have read in the supplied link. Thank you -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |
