I see the storm force winds for Thurs night \ Fri is going to only hit

filled with 30 mins of people twittering on about, fences blowing down
and dustbins rolling down the road?

Have you seen how many bins we now have with the recycling initiatives
the Councils down here have been indulging in? We got another 2 last
week for "waste food" collections.

Likely to be like a WW2 anti-submarine fleet passing through, with all
those cylinders hurtling through the air here come Friday. :-)

In Lewisham and Southwark they now have the community bin also known
as the streets.

That's all over the UK , even in the countryside! LOL


Tell me about it!

We have two main sledging slopes on Haytor and once the hordes have left and
the snow has melted it is amazing what you can find;
Bits of plastic from ruined "sledges", various drinks cartons, a bottle
opener (that I kept), condom packet (empty!!!!!), bottles, socks, gloves,
broken walking pole, underpants, and it goes on .......
Dartmoor National Park authority fortunately are excellent at clearing up!

Away from the sledging areas it is usually pristine clean though, apart from
dead animal remains.
Summer is much better for a reason that escapes me.
