Their reasons were simple the government and councils encouraged people to put tanks in with rebates so the responsibility rest with the government.

Leave them on the vine to dry is the best drying method. This will depend on the weather. If you want a lot in storage keep picking and freeze or dry by some other method than mother nature

The taxi came at 4.45am to pick up my mollster to go to Melbourne. It was pissing down rain and for some reason he insists on backing in. Well he missed the drive and got hung up on the drain under the drive way.
