• Joys of not being in London, I can get English oak sleepers (proper ones) for £25+vat. The issue I have with railway sleepers (have used them in my front garden) is when they get hot, 4 year old sits on them, and she ends up with creosote on her clothes...

  • Yeah, this is my objection to them. Creosote isn't particularly nice. I've seen people get skin burns after shifting railway sleepers on a hot day.
