Has anyone got a garden incinerator that I can borrow?

I'd be interested to know how you get on with this - can an incinerator handle fresh (ie. moist) vegetation?

I certainly hope it can, but I've got a broken down shed to fuel it with too. I'll let you know

Do I infer correctly from your message that you have an incinerator already?
Or is it just wishful thinking on my part?

Hi David,

I do indeed have an incinerator you are more than welcome to borrow. I too had a jungle of a back garden to deal with when I first moved here.

The incinerator itself has taken quite a battering over the last few years but is still perfectly functional. Of course if you burn wet vegitation you will get a lot of smoke. If the weather permits it it would be much better to cut everything back and let it dry out for a few days before burning. And of course warn neighbours to shut windows. (I've made that mistake before!)

Drop me a message if you'd like to come by and pick it up. I'm on Cavendish Road.

Chris

thanks very much. I'd be very grateful..

I've tried to send you a message through the site, but we need to be friends apparently. I've sent a request, but failing that, my mobile is 07931837022

Thanks again

Wishful thinking I'm afraid, though it looks like you are in luck anyway...!
