Morning Joy <3 :-D

You just beat me too it so I've deleted my Thread ;-) :-D

I got drenched this morning, Ralphie is all fluffy :-0 :-D :

On top of that all of next doors recycling paper was over my front:-| I've told them before if the items have had food in them and they don't put lids on their bins the foxes and, worse, the rats will have a field day :-|Do they listen to me :-P. Rant over ;-)

Morning Belle. <3 :-D

I know what you mean. One side of me keep their bins on their drive right at the front of the property. They have done so for years as K used to complain about rubbish blowing into our garden when it was windy and the bin lid flapped open. He bought a litter grabber which I have begun to use. He also placed a brick on top of their lid but they never replaced it after using their bin. He also thought they were lazy as they never wheeled the bins to their back garden like all of us do.

I have not mentioned anything to them because the guy has Alzheimer’s/dementia and the woman has had a back operation which makes it difficult for her to bend …. but I think she could lift the brick onto the wall when using the bin and reach it easily enough - also, she could buy a grabber.

Our dividing hedge is growing so I am hoping that fewer pieces of rubbish blow across. :-D

Just noticed. Last week I thought a bird was coming and going into one of K’s nesting boxes. Now I am certain. <3

Morning Joy, Belle and everyone :-) <3 :-) <3 :-) <3

Dry here but very cold and windy :-(

For some reason in the last 6 or 7 years loads of people round here have started leaving their wheelie bins at the front of the house. We think it makes the place look aweful but some people just don't care.

Have a good day and keep warm <3

Morning Kath & Fly <3 <3 :-D :-D

Kath, I always take my wheelie bin and recycling bins to the back garden when they have been emptied but not next door :-|

I get so annoyed because I've told them not to come on my property to put things in their wheelie bins....they take heed for a couple of weeks then it starts again :-|

The previous neighbors were so considerate :-0

Considerate neigbours make for much more pleasant lives.
Ours are great.

A bit gloomy here, but without the rain.
