Came home to find this blocking my access down to the farm!

Luckily a passer by saw the culprit and reported the registration to the relevant authorities so they might actually get somebody for it!
But Grrrr Grrrrr >:( ::) ??? had to get in home by crossing another landowners field (thankfully he didn't mind) Don't know if we will have to move it or the council will as its on side of dual carriageway.
Some good logs in for our pizza oven so not all bad! ;) ;D

Lazy buggers! >:(
But best of both worlds here - you know who it was and you get logs. At least it wasn't an old sofa or worse!
-
Well done to that passer by, but how can people be so thoughtless. Its not even as if you could squueze by. What if there had been an emergency. Still, as Jaykay says it could have been worse,
-
That is so annoying. Must admit it is probably the best rubbish possible to be dumped outside mine for the log burner :thumbsup:
Let's hope they get hauled over for it tho ( and you don't find it is some kind relative thought you might want his/her logs :innocent: ) .

very unlikely coz theres a lot of crap garden waste in with it but the culprit could be OH's BIL who he's fallen out with ::) or our neighbour who claimed a piece of nearby common land was his and we proved thro the land registry that it ain't - the list of culprits grows larger daily, i believe it was malicious. >:(

people have fallen out with you Mandy never
first culprit is yannies that material is very expensive to pay to get tipped :farmer:
-
Take it by Yannies you mean pikees or gypos, thought that at first too but round here they're very considerate and don't usually block entrances they sneak and dump it round the back of gates/hedges so its up to the landowner to remove and they wouldn't do it in broad daylight between 12 noon & 3pm on a main road, they use back roads and laybys generally.

Will everyone that Mandy has upset please form an orderly queue. :-J

My neighbour cuts his grass then dumps the cuttings on the verge. Too lazy to take them to the skip.
-
Rather ironically, where we live the inconsiderate bigots dump their rubbish outside the traveller site. My best friend lives on there, we catch their number plates and report them.
-
Our land is off the beaten track but got to by a public right of way. We sometimes, but not often get fly tippers. The first thing I do is go through it thoroughly for anything useful :innocent: then I 'phone the council fly-tipping number and they come and take the rest away.
What annoys me is that it is free to take unwanted items to the local re-cycling centre yet people still prefer to take their rubbish to a secluded place and dump it. It's not all commercial waste either ::)
-
its not free to dispose of if you are a business!!! most fly tippers are small business people trying to save money!!!
they're still lazy shites though!!!
-
Does it count as flytipping when dappy neighbours pour grass/tree cuttings over the fence into my field? - that makes me soooooooooooo cross >:(

obviously they are just being kind and feeding your stock, (yes i know this is bad)
-
;D I think they might be the ones that aren't too keen on my stock so its what they are 'feeding' them that worries me lol. same ones that fired fireworks at the lambs last year...very friendly neighbours!

If you can't use it, chuck it back!!!!
-
Definitely throw it back!
Your neighbours sounds like nightmares Plums - that would have me permanently so stressed :-\
-
I think the fireworks would get thrown back ;) If only!
To be fair, 3 of the houses are lovely people - the little old lady next door has said that her quality of life went up when we moved in and she's set a chair so that she can watch the goat kid playing with the lambs through the fence. He makes her very happy. As does hearing our cockerel and children playing.
Some of the others are a little 'odd' and seem to take great delight in openly watching us chase loose lambs or escaped goats (on the rare occasions it happens) and you can see them laughing if we lose our footing ::)
could be worse though, on the whole we are lucky.
