I'm all for litter police, but this is nuts

Absolutely crazy. I am physically unable to drop litter but I wouldn't consider for a moment that an apple core is litter when it's thrown into a hedge like that. A slightly different matter if it were dropped on a pavement though.

There was that case where a child dropped a crisp on the pavement and his mother was given a fine for littering! The birds would have seen that off in a second....

The world's going crazy

What a waste of time and money.

I hate these jobsworth types that can't apply a bit of sense. There's nothing wrong with throwing half an apple into a hedge in those circumstances. In our gardens, we would go out of our way to put food for birds, small wild animals and insects in accessible places. What nonsense!

Yep, totally nutty.

RUBBISH!

The law these days seems to give these jobs worths the power they crave but can't get any other way. Commonsense has gone right out of the window

The Street Cleaner where I used to work in town called his pigeons 'Andy's Little Helpers'. He told me that they not only ate all edible rubbish but also took away the cigarette ends which they used to line their nests!

Simply stupid.

A local lady was threatened with prosecution because she had left some bags of clothes next to the collection bank which was full. The bags had been sealed and were not causing a mess. A jobsworth opened them and found something which identified her.

The threat hung over her for weeks and was only relieved when the local media got involved and public opinion put pressure on the local council.

Plain stupid when they could be better employed waiting 500 yards from any drive through McDonalds.

I complained about litter piling up at the park entrance near my house, and that my green garden waste bin had had junk food cartons and bottles dropped in it when I put it out for the collection - the bin men refused it because it contained more than garden waste. I asked if waste bins could be placed by the park entrance to solve the problem.

Result? Came home this afternoon to find the bin men had swiped my green bin and left me without! Neighbours saw it being loaded on to a refuse van.

It's like being in One Foot in the Grave........!

Somebody left a large pile of cannabis leaves in our village car park a few years ago. I phoned the police to tell them but they weren't interested. I knew they were cannabis leaves cause there was a guy in the car park who was a fisherman and he recognised what it was from what [accidentally] grew from the hemp seed that he used for fishing .

Blimey, Tegan I'd better check out what DH is up to in his shed when he says he's getting his 'bait' ready

Tegan, the vicar's wife next door discovered hemp growing from the wild bird seed that had fallen from the feeders......she said....

Aaaah! We all know how vicars love a slice of cake!

We kept admiring this unknown but rather pretty plant in the garden. Our helpful ex policeman friend enlightened us.

Country's going to pot

Got a lot to do, better crack on
