Not sure of the definitive answer but certainly flag it up. We had a problem with H & S, using the HCTs because of the distance they had to travel out to the Start Point along busy roads. Result: we're not using them! :nana H & S is about the only stick you've got left to hit these buggers with so us it. :Very Happy

no paths then you cant use a trolley . the area may be risk assessed but i doubt if a trolley is the "right tool for the job".

We've still got some bikes at the moment, but when the Revision "Finally" comes in we're all in vans! Either on your own or Poop & Scoop.
