We still have a milkman who does the rounds on his clapped out little float. Most people by me still use him even though a big supermarket opened a couple of years back

There's shipbuilding and optics within a few yards of each other in Glasgow.
BAe systems are building aircraft carriers and Thales(Barr & Stroud) are building sensors and modern 'periscopes' for submarines. |

They come round once a week in a flatbed truck sounding like a bad audition for X factor but without the je ne sais quoi to actually ask for things before they actually help themselves to stuff which ain't theirs GRRRR 
sorry, rant over  |

I don't have a problem with that. If it's on the pavement, it's fair game and they're always a day or two ahead of the council.
I just wish they'd take it all, not just the stuff they're interested in.
What really surprises me is the amount of stuff just abandoned at the end of a 6 month or 12 month tenancy.
Some, I guess, will be doing a moonlight but surely not all. |

That's the problem though Onny, they have come down the entry and into the back garden through a gate to help themselves to things which were on MY property |
