i asked my  youngest son to keep an eye out at his works for some old pallets  he has just turned up with ten  but not  wot i expected these are huge 8 foot by 4 foot  ones made entirly from heavy duty 3 by 3 posts all in perfect condition so it looks like ill have about 50 8 foot posts and about the same 4 foot post bargain or wot must have saved me a fortune  in rough timber alone  he said there are 19 more at his works for me to have if i want them i wonder if i should get them  lol  oh well why not i guess ill find summit to use em for in the future  heheheheh out with the crowbar tomorrow

Mal, sounds as though there is enough there to build a log cabin. ;) ;D

Definitely far too big and unsightly to be useful; these should not be allowed on an allotment.

In fact, these are such a bad idea that I'm prepared, as a VERY special favour, to remove them from your plot for you - just think of all that space that will be freed up ;) ;) ;)

No?  I'd dispose of them properly!  Still no?  Ah well, worth a try :D

Good one - well done!  Gavin

I got a load of this size last year great i thought but couldn't get the nails out, they use what they call ring nails. Hope you have more luck then i did.

We are great fans of Pallets and they have been so useful at our lottie.  We have built containers for the compost with them and also a hold for the manure.  They have edged beds and made pathways, as well as fencing. Fantastic to have got a hold of so many.  Lucky you!  ;D busy_lizzie
