Why are you splitting the bags in half?

Hope your home insurance policy is robust. A kid’s arm break will cost you 30k.

I don’t know anybody who’d claim

What are you going planting in it? Doubt you need to sink them, are you going to put them on the flat or edge? You can tied them together with a square angle bracket.

Flowers. Will put them on their edge, two high.

Yeah was looking at bracket but was going to put 4 corner supports inside as an alternative

If it’s just flowers throw in a base of loose rocks if you have them and then just fill it up with topsoil.

Everyone knows you stick the shovel in the middle of bag and split it. Makes it easier to shovel out of.
You only open it at the top if you are fucking the whole lot in the mixer or if you’ve never done a days work in your life

The new thing is to dig a big hole in your garden and drop the trampoline down to ground level with a hole underneath it

This is good advice.

I approve of the technique but the shovel looks very clean.

What are you mixing for?

Well spotted. :scream::scream:

It’s a very weak mix with only half a bag,of course if you can’t lift a full bag you should split it.Mind you,you lose 1/4 of it with that bollixin.

The shovel has never done a days work in it’s life.

Now you have it.

I did concrete for 4 for months in Chicago and I’ll tell you one thing, it gets hard.

You’d want your head examined not to put a trampoline in the ground nowadays. Any fella not doing it should have the kids taken off him.
