If you buy a few bags you can usually negociate on the price.
Woudn't sand be a better substrate for perenties??

Thanks for the thought Westy but as I used screw nails they had to be put in by hand. One thousand nine hundred and forty four of the darned things and I have the swollen thumb to prove it |

You could have kept the edges straight Phil.....
The perenties will get out from under that, you will need to put some wiring around the edges and sink it into the ground at least a metre.

Huggy, nah mate, theres steel under that decking arrangement
Soulweaver, I thought of that but don't want to wet it cos a piece might stick to their catfood and cause impaction.

I bet you could pick up some recycled BC quite cheap afro, from a cattery when you are picking up their meals for the day.

I have a coupla spare single beds that I can repaint in nice colours for them if you like Afro...they deserve the best and all that.
If you teach them to walk on a leash you'd be set. You could start a business ridding the neighbourhood of feral cats.
Nice little money maker!
Personally, I think sand would be much cheaper- you can buy that by the tonne.
