One such collector had said to me that it was top class waste because it was passed by management, it wasn't until many years later that I understood what he meant.

The last place I knew seaweed to rot in abundance was at Felpham and, boy, did that send up!

The house I lived in until I was ten had an outside bucket lavvy and a pit up the garden where it was left to rot with straw.

Fred would dig it out occasionally and spread it on the garden, as had several previous generations of the family.

The guzunders were emptied into the ditch in the morning.

Late Father in Law apparently grew the most tasty celery with the contents of the loo and the chicken sheds
