There was a young man from Derry
Who was always half cut and merry 
And this handsome chap
Went and bought me a Bap

Quote from: Ashy on Today at 08:27:42 AMThey probably did get a rewilding grant. Curiously enough, the council's trees get regular attention but the roads and pavements are neglected.

While I'm having a rant, local councils are not obliged to provide any public conveniences, and ours doesn't provide any. At the same time they make public space orders to stop men relieving themselves in the street. I think they've got this wrong myself, and I wonder if it would stand up in court.
Yes you're right about the council not having to provide public loos, Ashy.   
See below:

No legal requirement: Local authorities have no statutory (legal) duty to provide or maintain public toilets. When council budgets run short, toilets are often the first service cut

While men can normally pee quickly and easily somewhere,  what the 'eck are women supposed to do I wonder?

The Chat Room / Sitting on the wall..
Last post by Scrumpy - Today at 09:40:55 AM

I went to the Co-op early this morning.. 8.00.. before it gets too hot..
 It wasn't open.. Sitting on a wall outside was Sue who does bakery..
 I sat with her.. She had been sitting there since 6.30.. !!!
Then the cleaner turned up.. Doesn't get paid if he doesn't clean.. The other workers (local) asked Sue to txt them when shop opens..  We had a good old chat and laugh.. 
I gave it until 9.00 then I went back home..
 Apparently the store opens at 7.00.. 
I quite enjoyed my morning.. Something different..
