I have a feeling you've never seen green bins and what the purpose of them are for :lol:

-Number 51
-Gloucestershire (the poor section)
-Messy as strawberry float garden
-Lots of shirtless, sweaty men in the garden

You know you've got an open invitation any time. :wub:

It's not always that messy! It's only cus I've gone "strawberry float it, that's too much to maintain" in the last month or so. And it won't be messy after tomorrow...and there's only 2 men.

And if you think I'd hire tradespeople just because they're staggeringly attractive..

Previously we had something like 11 separate bins/bags/containers for recycling. They've reduced the number this year but also don't turn up on time (the council bought lorries that were too big to fit down roads which slows things down quite a bit)

I don't use the little brown food one - I don't like the idea of it (seems like it'd get really smelly)

I rarely see anyone using them. Very few leftovers so they just go straight in the wheelie bin.

All the wheelie bins round here got somewhat agressive yellow stickers on "NO FOOD WASTE" on top a few months ago. Doesn't seem to have changed much.

Hanging basket looks like it could use some attention.

My Solicitor is apparently very VERY dense. Signing stuff today and at end she said "ok so just need letter from lender to kick things off" we like "you have confirmation" "yes but we need a letter to confirm you've given all the documents needed" "ok ill talk to bank"

Bank "no letter exists, the confirmation documents is well....the confirmation" my mortgage advisor was so confused he rang our solicitor himself to tell her that we have full confirmation of mortgage and she can kick things off. :dread:

Looks a lot better than the last picture :toot:

What's the plan for pots and the like now? Just a few by the wall so it's potentially useable as overspill parking (for smaller cars), or are you going to put it slap bang in the middle?
