You know, all this talk from people who have cars about people who can't
afford cars dumping stuff has made me wonder.

Why can't the people with transport take the big stuff belonging to those
who haven't transport to the tip? Reclamation Centre if you prefer.

It's like the protests about wheelie bins in the past. "what about all
those
poor old dears who can't push their bins to the gate?"

Why don't able bodied neighbours do it for them? It's only once a week at
most. When it comes to dumping mattresses and other furniture it must be
even less frequently.

Let's have some co-operation, even friendliness.

This is the United Kingdom of 2008. We haven't done friendly since
1979. I used to have a 2L Mk3 Cortina Estate and lots of friends.
Didn't have so many friends when I sold it and bought a Lada.


You mean you were judged by the car you owned???

You can do without friends like that, especially if they preferred a
Cortina.
