It's rare for me to get cross but fly tipping and litter both press the button.
The first farm gate leaving my little town is always clean and tidy....no mud from vehicles left on the road.....hedge trimmed to give a clear view of the bend.
But once again today it has had a pile of rubbish dumped in it. Large chunks of plaster board and other bits and bags of building materials. I guess from someone in my town doing a bit of renovation.....
I feel for the farmer who has to constantly clear the gateway...or get it cleared......
Does he have to pay if the council has to clear it......especially if it could perhaps be asbestos....don't know if that is likely....?
And isn't it a strange mindset lets someone dump rubbish for someone else to clear up........
Well I don't mind donning a uniform, Baldric.....but we wondered if the entrance could be booby trapped in some way....
But then of course you have the danger of an innocent motorist pulling in for a ............... cigarette?....x
Anything left in an area where the public have access that causes damage to a third party or their property would get you a date in court for endangering public safety or similar ( even if they were trespassing) I would think.
You should have made more of an effort to make your way to the shrubbery then, Baldric.... ;-)
I know we pay the council to take our rubbish, Cannary.....but for a renovation job they should hire a skip...or take it to the tip on the specified days.....or fill the skip outside my house when I'm not looking......☺
