How about this. On the branch which all was around a beautiful white clean colour new snow on this day coming back from Radstock on a ROD I think no;3032 a lovely driver whose house backed out to his allotment in the Brislington area. Whilst we were at Clutton a coalman told us that we could pick coal mainly dust and so we had 3/ 4 bags on the fooplate "NOT A GOOD IDEAL "
when we were near his allotment he said "kick em off"Col! which I did and when the bags hit the ground this Driver had the blackest spot in Bristol all over his allotment! Next day same offer refused thank you very much why?asked the coalman well the bags were rotten thats why.The coalman then said I thought you would burn them in the fire box.It was weeks before the ground looked like an allotment again
