Like we're we live ,people leave black bags outside and it's foxes that rip them open.Thank god we haven't got people lying all over the place or underpasses.

Lyn I'm not surprised by any stretch of the imagination , I'm still waiting to hear about the council not being able to finance some more important issue . Meanwhile they bung for something like this
If voting made any difference , they wouldn't let us do it.

That one-legged car window cleaner gets about, she's often at the Bristol Road/Belgrave Middleway junction - unless there are a herd of one legged women in the car window cleaning business...

When I lived in the area there was one old guy who used to beg outside either the pub or the bookies.  At least no one was under any illusion as to where their money was going if they gave him any. ;)

Millions to be spent on this white elephant which will no doubt be over budget and late. And they still can’t empty the bins?
