Reported my first Diesel Spill today.

On the way in to work, on the other side of the road, was about a 60 foot stretch, perhaps 2 feet wide.

Didn't know what to do, but phoned the council, they put me through to environment something.

Anyway, I have autoroute at work, so I knew exactly the location.

Where it was was just as you turn in to the road.

Also its my way home..

Nice one. So how much hassle was it, did you get endlessly passed around or was it fairly easy?

Speaking of spills, farmer near my village had a nice big layer of mud covering 2 fulls lanes on a very bad bend which he never bothered to clear up...

I'd hate to think if a biker and come round the bend when I did driving home. It's a blind bend so I hit the muck full on nearly jumping lanes.

Ain't they supposed to clean up after them?

I reported two last year first one to enviromental wotsit and they took over 8 hours to do anything, as it was still there on my way home from work. The second I reported to the Police...shock horror it was being dealt with in less than an hour. Shocked

I phoned the local council and they put me through to the environment bit.

It was wet this morning, but dry tonight, so i couldn't tell if they'd been or not.

Wasn't hard to report, just phoned the main switch board of the council and said I need to report a diesel spill.

They did ask for my name and contact details.

Probably going to send me a bill for the clear up. Mr. Green Mr. Green Rolling Eyes
