At a previous house, I put some sun damaged old white plastic garden furniture out at the bottom of our drive for the bin men. It went long before they came. Next thing to go was an old non working Hoover. But what really surprised me is that every time I put a large bin bag of grass clippings, they also went before the bin men. Someone with a rabbit farm?
I did wonder why our local authority went to the expense of hiring bin men at all.
Gordon, that's more like the responses I received when clearing out all my boaty bits. I think Howard must live in an extremely expensive area.
I live in S Wales. You could buy the whole country for the cost of a London Semi!
