Get confirmation from bundy, but doesn't the oragne pigment of those pipes contain lead?

lead + AP = bad

lead + animal that accumulates heavy metals (yabbie) = worse ;)

Might be ok, just make sure

My dad and I managed to finish digging the MAIN holes for the ponds today - and on the way we had to battle large tough roots which seemed intent on hindering our progress...
But after a liberal dose of "stump-be-gone" (see pic below), and 40 min of sweating, they were no more and the hole was ready for the preformed pond...
Tomorrow we level the base of the hole and fit the pre formed pond for good

File comment: my answer to naughty stumps - my trusty mattock, "stump-be-gone" - it is damn sharp and does the trick !

F&F has a "stump begone" too, only problem is if you use too much it morphs into "house and neighbours begone" ;)
