No. However, I can see why, probably good fibre, lots of growth material for the little micro munchies. Too many sterile, acid/bleach chemicals added usually.

Common now, own tanks becoming less common I mean. An acquaintance who used to run a business emptying them, somewhere near Whitchurch/Shropshire told me. Aparantly one property in the middle of nowhere, have a tank, however now residential land more valuable so more houses next to same solitary house so a connection arranged.

That's life, blink of an eye, then a hamlet, village, town, city, Odeon cinema multiplex, McDonalds and a lot more shit........

People eh, we infest everywhere. I like the film 'The Matrix', I cannot dispute that it may not be true and actual. I just wish I had been given a slightly different program to be part of, are well such is code.

My willow trees absolutely adore the out flow from my septic at holiday hut. Great windbreak if you forgive the pun!!

Yep, I can appreciate that. Willows the weeds of the tree world, so lovely, so gracefully, so resilient. Signs of places abandoned and old features of a previous time. I often portrait them in my watercolours, odd, often moving but always at rest.

I would wish to be buried under a willow or a yew tree.

Bring me my bow etc.
