Thought you would have done that with tarmac? Is the polo mint price inflation hitting you hard?

Mowing the leaves up is probably even more of a pain in the ****. You'll end up emptying the bag every two mins.

not ******** fit birds that for bloody sure !!!!! It's just a pile of poo. Sliced my finger open on Saturday. the chrome door handles have started to peel and the edges of the chrome are razor sharp. grabbed the handle of one of the electric doors and it nicked my finger tip. only small but it bloody well hurt. I feel a 2005 blob eye in mica black coming on.

Does anyone know what the deal with tree's overhanging your property from parkland ?? can I chop them back or is it tough titty.

We have a few beech tree's behind our house and the upper limbs over hang our garden, basically destroyed the grass and turned half of the garden to moss not to mention stripping the summer house of it's felt.

Come Autumn the garden disappears under 3 inches of leaves and Beech nuts and this year we have noticed it has restricted the light, so we'd like it trimmed.

I guess as the tree's are on Parkland it's not mine to "prune" and as it is not obstructing a highway the council wont touch it ??

Copper nails and diesel are not an option as they're probably 80-100 ft high and it would fall on the house lol

And intercourse at 3 am on a cold morning in the garden with my neighbour/s is not my style


You misunderstood the style of intercourse, and with a shared privy you may not get the choice if you are in dire need.
