Forgot to put my garden bin out last night. 

Now I have to waste a few hours bagging the contents and taking it to the tip.

An old Micra cabriolet pulled in front of me, so I had to do a full on emergency stop.  Never mind, we all make mistakes, so I just followed her along to the next village at a rapid 20mph....    ....where she did exactly the same to another car!

At the first opportunity, I decided to overtake, look in mirror after, she's swerving all over the road, my immense 50mph to overtake must have scared her witless

Despite having to pay council tax of over £1600 pa ( which to me only covers having the bins emptied) we now have to pay extra (cant remember how much - circa £75 pa) to have our garden waste bin emptied.

Not today, but a couple of days ago. Took swmbo to eye clinic at local hospital. It opens at 9am and her appointment was 10.15 am.
She was seen at 11.45am
I cannot fathom how a place that opens at 9am can be 90 minutes behind schedule, 75 minutes after it opens.

Oh, and another thing.....
On the way to work this afternoon, came up to a mini roundabout. Some non descript Ford, driven by a woman pulled out in front of me from my left.
Being a belligerent sod, I just carried on as if she wasnt there, so she had to stamp on the brake pedal to stop from ploughing into me.
I looked across at her and her face was pressed at the windscreen, full of hatred, yelling obscenities.
Gone are the days when someone in her position would hold up her hands to say " sorry".
We live in a sad world.

Yep we pay an extra £69.50 a year for the garden bin.

I'm glad I put decking at the back and block paving at the front. Not that anyone in Barnsley would consider paying for green waste removal, there would be bonfires everywhere

Same here.

That's expensive...our green bin fee is £35 - went up from £30 two years ago.

I think our council tax came through the other day, £2800 I think, to empty the bins 26 times unless there is a hint of wintery weather...

Our green bin was around £40 since they started charging, but doubled this year, no doubt to help pay for the bone idle lame and lazy.

And, despite charging us 2800/26 = >£100 each time they empty our bins, they want to either half our bin sizes, or move to collection every 3 weeks.  Knowing West Northants council, former South Northants council before they blew all their money on a new office block and went bankrupt, they'll do both.

Yep they can only be bothered to empty the bins once a month and the plebs are living in the potholes, but they have plenty of cash for rainbow pedestrian crossings which are spreading round the country like a rash!

Not yet, it will happen though as it's a box to tick.  Every city, town, and village will have one eventually.

Merc drivers. All of them. Retards.

I can only assume the stupid handbrake pedal confuddles their drivers.  Not seen a single Merc get over 25mph in NSL all day, FFS.

Not guilty either ... I was in Lanzarote!
And I don't use my (leccy) hand/parking brake!
