Default Free Sand

Hi

Strange one for a motorbike forum......

I have 5 or 6 bags of sharp sand from B&Q, jumbo bags around 20/25kg each.

Free to a good home. Collection only from Sidcup.

Have one or the lot your choice!!

If you have a lawn, spread it over your lawn late September, will do it a world of good

Top dressing with sand helps with drainage and thatch, whatever the soil it shouldn't do any harm unless the sand has a high salt content, it's the way I've always got rid of excess sand and the lawn looks better the following year.
