The lesser spotted bin man

[Dark Black]

...Traffic wardens issued with 4x4s so that they can issued parking tickets.

Seriously?

I've been trying to arrange for BT OpenReach to come down and fix our neighbour's phone line (branch too it out between pole and house). Since we live down a track the only vehicles that can get down it are 4x4s. When I told them this they (OpenReach) said they had no 4x4s...

So it's ok for traffic warden scum but not phoneline service engineers... bizarre

The bins outside the local school are buried under black bags. Many have been ripped open (birds and/or vermin) and many contain Xmas wrapping paper.

Bin men used to be the roughty-toughty, hurly-burly geezers wot grafted for the Council.

What happened to them?
