My yard used to look like this:








It now looks like this:


I read somewhere that people on the east coast wanted more top soil so they decided to pinch mine?

I knew you'd be behind this somewhere Dave. I've just dragged about 30kg of red **** out of my pool and spa. I've spent all day cleaning the house down and I've been going since 6.30am. It's now 7.30pm and I've just come in to sit down and enjoy a nice RED and that's not red dust.

If you lived in Georgia, your backyard would be in another State downriver somewhere.

Hey how about doing your bit and watering the garden... Now why am I wondering why you have a iron ore mine in your back yard. Are you about to be listed in the top 100 of Business Review Weekly

Mmmmm Sacred Burial grounds....
