Ughhh!!!!
What’s been dumped Lyndon?
Either way Fix my Street has done well on several occasions.
Phil’s (our erosion run-off volunteer) reported the mattresses in the wattle

The rocky knoll behind your place is another Mt Rogers treasure in terms of
native vegetation. Though your neighbours off Bird place did dump some
cotoneaster branches months ago.
Thanks for the heads up,
Season’s greetings to you all,
Rosemary
