nightrider Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 On the front page of this mornings Daily Mail it says that people are going to be fined if their garden is full of rubbish, £100 instant fine council or private householders, wonder who thought that one up?

flicka Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Saves them having to find the culprits who drop the litter that blows into the gardens. Once again penalising the easy targets. I've spent a couple of hours dragging litter from under bushes in the front this afternoon & 1'2 filled a bin bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not about litter - it's about rubbish. It's about people who dump old sofas and fridges in their gardens. :-| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Size could be adjusted according to the size of your garden( ....and how many neighbours you want to get rid of ). :-| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laimeduck Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Ahh the Yin & Yang Pouffe? I guess the feminine side is the pink? I quote "The curves and circles of the Yin-Yang symbol imply a kaleidoscope-like movement. This implied movement represents the ways in which Yin and Yang are mutually-arising, interdependent, and continuously transforming, one into the other. One could not exist without the other, for each contains the essence of the other. Night becomes day, and day becomes night. Birth becomes death, and death becomes birth (think: composting). Friends become enemies, and enemies become friends." I just think.... Composting! :-D :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
