Certainly looks like it. If you're skipping it make sure it's not visible to the guy picking it up or they'll refuse to take it.

Thanks. It's on a couple of council garages that border my garden, so I need to get them to deal with it. Here's another picture. It's starting to flake on the inside :

It looks like "cement asbestos" and is quite safe. The type of asbestos used is not the dangerous blue stuff.

 

 

Get the council to change it though :)

white aspestos, still not nice to interfere with, there are licenced companies around who take it away for you. I remember using the disc cutter on the stuff years ago before i found out not to.

Free to choose apart from the ones where the trust poked their nose in. Common eel. tope. Bass and sea bream. All restricted.


New for 2016 TAT are the main instigators for the demise of the u k bass charter boat industry, where they went screaming off to parliament and for the first time assisting so called angling gurus set up bass take bans with the e u using rubbish exaggerated info collected by ices from anglers, they must be very proud.

Upgrade, the door has been closed with regards to anglers being linked to the e u superstate and the failed c f p. So TAT will no longer need to pay monies to the EAA anymore as that org is no longer relevant to the u k . Goodbye to the europeon anglers alliance and pathetic restrictions from the e u.

Angling is better than politics, ban politics from angling.

Consumer of bass. where is the evidence that the u k bass stock need angling trust protection. Why won't you work with your peers instead of castigating them. They have the answer.

Recipie's for mullet stew more than welcomed.

Angling sanitation trust and kent and sussex sea anglers org delete's and blocks rsa's alternative opinion on their face book site. Although they claim to rep all.

new for 2014. where is the evidence that the south coast bream stock need the angling trust? Your campaign has no evidence. Why won't you work with your peers, the inshore under tens? As opposed to alienating them? Angling trust failed big time re bait digging, even fish legal attempted to intervene and failed, all for what, nothing.

Looks like the sea angling reps have been coerced by the ifca's to compose sea angling strategy's that the ifca's at some stage will look at drafting into legislation to manage the rsa, because they like wasting tax payers money. That's without asking the rsa btw. You know who you are..

Many years ago [more than i care to remember anyways] working on a job up in the smoke as an apprentice we were preping up an old basemnet/boiler room to brighten up with a few coats of white when the one of the other painters an (old boy done it since i was 14 type] was cleaning down the asbestos that was used to lag the heating pipes with a wire brush :o .

I told him he was barking and i wouldnt be doing that and his reply was i have been rubbing this stuff down for forty years boy and it aint done me any harm yet,Nice old boy but probubly didnt want to addmit to himself there was anything wrong with it after doing it for that many years and if i had been in his shoes i would have most likely been the same .

I believe that some of the hardwood dusts [cabinet makers/joinery] are just as bad Steve.

We are not putting it back it is a lump now put that curry down and go and get the scales

have I told you abouit the cruise control on my Volvo ,,,,,,,bla bla bla Barder rod has it come yet?? and don`t even start me on Chris Lythe :bleh::icecream:

Yep looks like asbestos cement to me, you can handle it safely if your careful and sensible about doing so, its not like blue or brown asbestos which are the most dangerous and require specialised handling and can only be removed by licenced contracters, but it still can be dangerous and requires disposing of correctly and safely(not burying in the bottom of your skip) guidance for the disposal can be found here and the guidance for handling and removal can be found here

North herts environmental health data sheet here it gives the details of two transfer stations where the public can bring bonded (cement) asbestos for disposal

Thanks for the replies. Glad it is not really dangerous, but what about the flakes and powder that it is disintegrating into, as seen here :
