Afternoon all!

Does anyone have access to a mini digger of any sort, or any machinery I could borrow to remove a load of turf and topsoil?

I would do it by hand but a) it's a bit too much like hard work for a bad back, b) plant and machinery is cool and c) the ground I have to remove is heavily consoidated and full of builders rubble, so it gets quickly tiresome digging by hand every time you strike a brick or lump of concrete and nearly break your shoulder with the jolt.

Beer tokens available (as soon as I receive the cash for sale of my elise )

About £50 a day to hire from jewson's, theres a guy at crockey hill, near the cafe, who is cheaper sorry dont know his number. Just after christmas I was told he charged £30/day including delivery

^ as above, hiring is surprisingly cheap. awesome fun too if you've got any trees you want to remove, or anything else you might want to do, get it all planned now and hire one

i ued the dude at crockey hill, when i did my drive was the cheapist by far and when it arived it came with two divrent size buckets so you could swop it from big to small if needed
