This afternoon I have been mostly… …watching a man empty my cesspit. Since we've been here we’ve had it emptied every 6 months and they’ve always sent a little tanker that could easily get up our drive. But today as the rain has been oodles I ordered a larger one. Took 3500 gallons away and seems that there was a LOT of sludge at the bottom that could have been there ages…. Thankfully it didn’t really stink (not that you’d expect my 💩 to smell anything other than of niceness). Was really interesting! Chap was there 2 hours pumping and jetting the pipes etc. Keep meaning to invest in a Klargester but the current system ain’t broke….
