Greyman 28,198 Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 My house in Bristol is in a smokeless zone but I burnt everything and anything for 40years in there avonmouth and its many toxic businesses is a mile down the road we have a siren system that goes off from time to time when they spill out there shite accidentally and when it does we are meant to run indoors shut all the windows and doors and listen for further instructions on local radio, it’s laughable, there are now 3 councils in Britain that have been granted permission to knock on doors and issue fines for smoke from the chimney it’s all a hypocritical shite and I will just press on but Kanny is right it is coming 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

eastcoast 4,115 Posted February 14 Report Share Posted February 14 Good news for me. I created forms years ago to be used on sites that get signed when we return large wooden cable reels and pallets to the supplier as evidence of re-use rather than going to landfill. To appease the annual auditors. It worked for a bit but now when I ask the lads where are the forms I get the reply "well, ya nah". I do know, they are chopping them up and taking them home for the wood burner. Then I have to pretend to be annoyed. 2 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
