Ha, it was sticky London clay combined with rocks, concrete, plates, old tiles etc so nothing but a spade and taking it down to undisturbed soil then removing all the detritus would work here unfortunately.
Finished up about an hour ago. Hopefully will sleep well tonight. I'm bit sure of the colour yet. It's a freebee from my mate who is a professional gardener and he's not said. It'll take a while for it all to settle back down to ground level and for the worms to do their thing with the compost. Today marks the 10 time in 2 years I've emptied the hotbin. Such an amazing purchase.

Chunks of clay with stones? Say no more...
I need a hotbin too I think as ordinary compost bins won't kill the seeds. But first thing first ..which is have A compost bin :)
What else will you plant? As that is weed central otherwise, wood chip will help too.
(My garden is 50% weed seeds 50% soil though ;)

We got one a few weeks ago. It's finally up to temperature (probably didn't have enough stuff in it to begin with) and I just drained the juice from the bottom. Hope that isn't a frequent task - it certainly has a flavour
It's hard graft, a large hoe is easier than digging with a spade I think.
What colour did you for? I bought a white climbing hydrangea.
