Of course
That were nice of you.
 
I finished breakfast this morning and was just strting to put some new flat pack furtiture together when I heard a machiey wizzy type noise from outside

I ignored it for a while but eventually got curious and went out
It appeared to be coming from the woods at the end of the garden

I went upstairs to get a better look over the fence
Turns out that the bloke next door has decided to fell one of the trees
He has done this before - not sure he is allowed to as it is counsel property but it did stop a lot of leaves falling on his patio and stuff

but this one is very definitely at the bottom of OUR garden - not his and it adds to our privacy and stops people from getting from the "black path" to out back fence

Not really sure what he is up to - bit worried that he might be starting to develop a proper path out of his back garden onto the black path so he can get to the Co-Op easier
which would also make it easier for local scruffs to get to the back of out houses - which is not a good idea!!!

Enquire at the local council office as to why they're chopping trees down.
Anyone with property backing onto the affected area will be asked about it. And if you're asked the same as he is, it makes it easier for/on you.

Good morning folks,
Forecast says windy but it's relatively calm at the moment. Good for the wind turbines, and all of our electricity was free last night so Mrs Tkk put the dishwasher to work and set the empty washing machine on an extra hot cycle with a few scoops of Citric acid in the dispenser.

Good morning all.
It's a bit breezy outside, it woke me up during the night.
The first of the bin lorries have been down our road. The recycling lorry is always the first one, around 06.30, followed by the general rubbish one in a couple of hours.

Our collection day is Thursday.
Black one week....Blue and green the next week.
They uses to come early and then, for some reason switched to pm.
Last week it was 0900.
No pattern to it that I can see.
