Dirt

I hired a small tip truck and transported 20cubic mteres fo dirt last week so i could finally fill in the old trench that ran thru the yard.I then hired a mini digger to spread it and then finished it off by hand and threw some grass seedout.Ive evened out the levels of the yard and it lokks a lot neater now.I had prices of 4000 and 2000 euros from 2 different places.NO WAY!!!!450 euros and a case of beer later ,we have the same outcomeI bought the dirt form a local farmer and i did 10 trips in the truck .THe dirt was 6euros a M3 and was cheap ,but he had to keep loading me all day.It was veryhot So i bought him a case of beer before lunch ,but he didnt want to take it.I told him thts the way we deal in Australia and he was quite impressed.After lunch he kept on slipping me a cold beer in betwen loads and then another to finish off with.Lucky the bottles are small and i didnt have to drive far.Any way, he was happy and he learnt a little about the australian way.

Funny how 20 m3 can disappear to almost nothing
