I don't like gravel. That's it.
- noisy
- scatters all over the neighborhood.
- hard to walk on
- dogs and cats crap in it
- kids chuck it around and put it in their mouth.
- doesn't even look good.
- difficult and heavy to remove once you have come to terms will all of the above.
Gravel advocates... explain your case for gravelling your garden/drive.
Gravel sceptics, feel free to share your distaste.
It's cheap.
Maybe that's why it's so prevalent.
