Decking

The completed pallet ready for service. I don't think it will be put into service immediately, but one day soon. It fits between the pirate planks and a couple of guys stand on there and scoop the junk onto it to be hoiked up onto a mountain of gloop that is later scooped onto trucks to be stored in measured mounds nearby. These are then sorted by hand to separate plastic and other man made items from the organic material. The pallet looked far too clean and nice for the grotty yard, it felt odd climbing onto it with muddy boots on, so we took off our shoes when we were screwing down the slats and later when we used it as a little picnic area for our tea break.
