But the new 'civic amenity site' is top notch. Never again shall I fear a 3 hour trip to the dump.

Well done.

I lived in Swindon for a year and remember going to the 'tip' there. I though that was pretty good; it's almost like a track with separate pitstops for different types of waste.

Where is the new one? You don't mean Smallmead do you?

Don't think so. It's down on the A33 near Madjeski and the Speedway. It was the outdoor place where you had to reverse into the spaces. This new one is down the same road but you turn left 20ft earlier where the ruble dump used to be.

I was so pleased I went twice in one weekend and you'd never do that normally to Reading tip!
