Just doesn't make sense does it Harvey.

Well that's something, you know what to expect next year, I thought they were a good taste also.

As a gardener I thought this might make you laugh (or maybe not)

We have several mushroom farms around here, they get their basic supplies from the Newmarket racing stables, and when they've harvested the crop they sell it off as 'spent mushroom compost'

We generally buy one of those big cubic metre bags each year (They call them 'dumpy' bags around here)

When the guy with his little lorry had positioned it where we wanted it I paid him, and then offered the old bag from last year to take back. It was in good condition, clean, and had their name printed on the side.

"Oh no" he said "We are not allowed to re-use the bags, it's some EU directive" what the.................

I don't get it, we are told to put all our re-cyclibles in the blue bin, but a big empty canvas bag with name printed on which maybe costs £10 and they are not allowed to re-use it.

Crazy or what, you've got to laugh or you would go do-lalley.
