Council Tip which is now run by a private firm. The other week I took a settee to tip told I cant bring my trailer in as it has twin axels cant park outside and carry it in as No footpath so against health and safety. So today instead of using the twin axel trailer I had to load the tiny council friendly trailer which isnt big enough for the load so is unstable and have to do two trips which causes more polution and more congestion. So much for being green and enviromentally friendly. No wonder so many people Fly tip these days with all these dumb ass rules

After several dog turds appeared outside my house, I got up early enough to see who was doing it. And followed them home - about a mile away. Next time(s) it happened, I collected them, and returned them to the owner's doorstep with a short "Yours, I believe" note. I haven't been troubled since.

*tuts* Being stuck at work til goodness knows what time... why do people suddenly decide that there's information they can't possibly live without when it reaches 5pm? Particularly when their offices are closed from Monday until the 7th January! I've had naff all to do all day long... 5pm arrives and the brown smelly stuff hits the fan - d'oh!

Just answer WB, in your politest voice, "That's not a problem, I may not have time to look at it right now as I am having to leave the office, but I will have a look straight away when I am back in ........." In our old offices, the company had to lease car parking spaces, but because of our job our spaces were rarely all taken. Some of the other companies in the offices seemed quite happy therefore to come in and take one of our spaces if it was empty. We'd of course then come in, find our space taken and then have to park up on double yellow lines, whilst we searched the entire building trying to find who's car it was. Normally after telling people the problem and that we had to actually lease the spaces, they wouldn't then again park in them. But some did and one of these was a fancy suit in a little Porsche Boxster who used to nick our spaces regularly, despite being asked not to over and over. One day my old gaffa was late in because he was catching a late train to go to London for two nights for work. When he got in he found his space had been taken by the little Porsche and there were no other spaces empty. So, quite amusingly, he parked right up against this guys car and put a notice on his windscreen that said "Caught train to London, be back Friday!!!" Mr Porsche never did it again!

Sorry lovey...

*tuts again*

People saying "arkse" instead of "ask". The S precedes the K. Is it really that impossible to pronounce the letters in the correct order?!

Serves me right for switching the telly on I suppose...

have got error 800a0005 if that means anything to anybody?

Julie, I am afraid everybody has to tighten their belts this year so all events of any kind have been cancelled. However, if you quote that number (800a0005) at any bar they will provide you with a free drink of your choice by way of consolation. Hope this helps....
