Guys. I've taken your advice and for now will fill the area with bark chippings.

I should add that I contacted 2 local companies and both weren't interested in the job. Probably too small for them. If anyone know a company local to me in London, N20 then please let me know.

fair play steve, you are correct. We should try and help, not take the piss. Think that's a good quik fix till after the party daz'. Hopefully someone local will take you on and do a pro' job. I understand you not having the time, sometimes wish i could afford for work to be done but sadly, like a lot on here i have to plod on and find the time and money. Good luck with your party. I'm serving mass sunday :;): :)

for the record Steve I had already given the correct advice to Darren 3 days earlier but he decided to ignore it *shrug shoulders*
