Scrubbing your chuckies

Post by mik »

Not like that you filthy animals.

I have some driveway chuckies that got contaminated with silt. Long story. I want to clean them.

I think I need a larger version of something like this (it’s 33cm diameter where I reckon 50cm would be betterer).

Any ideas?

Or maybe since I need a new wheelbarrow anyway, I should buy one and then drill some holes in the old one…. :?

This seems like the most sensible option if you've got lots to do...

I keep hearing scrubbing your chuckies in Rhys Darby's accent.

Me too. And I'm very disappointed.

You'll scrub every chuckie in Scotchland with that.
How about not having a sig at all?

Have you considered moving house?

I've used a riddle to get rid of invasive weed roots but I'm not sure a riddle could deal with the repeated weight of "chuckies".

Why don't you just use a pressure washer on a wide, slow setting to rinse the silt to the bottom?

So I'm now thinking chuckies are gravel or stones? Is this like a Scottish version of Cockney rhyming slang or something based on 80s computer games?
