That reminds me, I haven't had my bonfire yet. I think Wednesday is probably best.

That's absolutely brilliant, particularly the 'screaming banshees when any mention of sex or sausages'

well our dear builders started their daily bonfires for a week , bearing in mind there are many hundreds children in schools nearby , its not on . anyway 3 complaints to environmental health did the trick [ with pics] they have given me a diary to fill in if they start again !! most normal builders would use a skip but not these guys !!!
ou might slip, you might slide, you might
Stumble and fall by the road side
But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you around
… Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

Taking stuff to the skip isn't as simple as just chucking it in a skip anymore.
WE ARE A RECYCLING CENTRE, is what you get out of the inmates. Then you have to sort through your rubbish if there is anything mixed. Can't through the black bag in.....in case you are trying to sneek an empty beans tin in there.
More political correctness.
I agree with recycling, but when 3 - 4 of the inmates are stood around talking and laughing and you are pulling your pluck out.........bring back fly tipping. No not really, but make it easier for users.

Come down to Devon, we pay £235/mnth for a standard 4 bed detached, in band F, and we have to sort into 4 re-cycle bins, you can have a 5th green one for garden waste but then you have to pay £48/year for the privilege.
If you take anything to the re-cycle tip that remotely looks like building waste, then it is £5 per bag, and anything that looks like it might have been near/off a car or is vaguely mechanical is thrown back at you. So basically anything that cannot get money for they will not handle and you have to store it forever in your garden.
Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.
