Mother child parking I have used as a Granddad of course for one very simple reason, with two young children in a car you can park one on the pavement in front of the shop whilst getting the other little "err" beauty out, it does help to know where they are. Out on the open car park always seem to me a bit of a battlefield in fact there were times I would have been safer on one, the school run seems to erupt onto those places where they all fight for the places nearest the door when there are a hundred empty spaces a few yards walk away. They call it busy mother syndrome, I call it the idiot run, they have the most precious people in their weapons of war and do not appear to care about it. No school run in my day we walked and secondary school was a bus ride. My young Grandson now walks to school, he thinks it naff to ride and even on Swimming Baths day will walk to meet the car, I notice his legs are better for it.
I would like to catch the litter lout who drops is can of coke and fag packet out side my house every day because I would follow him home and dump the lot in his home and make him read the warning on the packet.
That's how I feel about the owner who lets his dog c..p on the edge of my drive all the time. Don't fancy picking it up though! Get the council out to do that, being as they say there's nothing they can do about it. You can't spend 24 hours looking out the window can you.
...or get that armoured car Frank suggested be used against aggressive London cyclists, and park it on the drive - not sure whether you should aim at dog or owner?
Many years ago a neighbour of mine (it was a nice area, honest) dumped some waste in the countryside. The farmer on whose land it was noticed an envelope with an address, so he scooped it all up and redumped it on my neighbour's front garden. Nice one, and it even made the local newspaper. I don't believe it happened a second time.
Was asked if I would like a speed camera when I constantly complained about the speed of the traffic in my road! Council hasn't offered a CCTV camera but they might get so fed up with me, it may be in the offing! I might even suggest it.
In France it's illegal to drive less than a metre from a cyclist. Is it the same in the UK?
I think I've heard that here BL but not sure. Is it because when drivers give cyclist a wide body swerve on narrower roads they end up on the other side of the road and therefore cause a problem with oncoming traffic?
Litter...aaagh My mum used to tell me off for putting rubbish in my pocket when I was very young because she had to take it out if she washed the jacket, but , as I explained - what was I meant to do with it if there was no bin? I vowed if I had children I would never tell them off if they put their rubbish in pockets as I hate litter and I'm pleased to say they are litter conscious and hate it as much as me. I must be doing something right! People who let dogs s#*@ and then walk away should have it returned to them whenever possible. Definitely keep on about the camera Tina!
And what is that thing they do with the dog pooh bags thrown in trees.... Are they mad??
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
cats.hate them.if they are pets then why do people let them poo where ever they want.do cat owners know the meaning of pet,wild animal,domesticated and bone idle?answer is no,yes,no,YES.
people who own cats without litter trays are like people who let their dogs poo on the pavement but ten times worse,as the dogs don't kill small animals and birds and they don't deficate in peoples gardens.
the government should have all cats dna registered,so when they poo in the garden you can get the neglectful owner fined.most of my neighbours have cats without litter trays,so i asked my neighbour one day where her cat poos and she said she didn't know.i will tell you it was in my garden where my two young kids play.if she doesn't care or know then she isn't fit to own a cat.

Tina, you can spend 24 hours looking out of your window CCTV.

Definitely aim at the owner Pentillie - twice.
