Strangest people or thing you have actually found? Where there's muck there's money eh? I don't see any of it as strange anymore because I see how common it is. I can go in 10 bedrooms in a sheltered accommodation block , full of homeless people and ex cons... 5 will be living in filth and strange ways. Beds taken to pieces, buckets of fag butts just collected and left, sleeping on the floor next to the bed etc etc . I think rat man had to be the most interesting really. When I did bedbugs would often find collections of sex toys and stuff. They know I'm going through everything and are told to empty drawers and tidy up....but they dont. Took 30 bags of women's underwear and retro porn out of a locked room in a single man's house. The more I see of people, in a cleaning/ pest control setting, the more I deal with all sorts of people work wise and the more I see of people in a legal setting I reckon I'm becoming more interested in human phycology than anything else. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe study psychology, a guy I know paid £350 for an initial consultation and hour long session, money for old rope. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stavross 15,791 Posted September 7, 2022 Report Share Posted September 7, 2022 Gabbions filled with limestone ( by hand ) and wired together, just need a couple hundred tonne of backfill now to fill the big hole behind them 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That sounds astonishingly labour intensive! Why couldn't ye just drop, at least, the major bulk in with a digger? (Genuine question) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
