I am waiting until 9.00 for the tip to open. I hope to get at least three trips in today. I would have a skip but my current location requires a permit costing £134 each time. Add that to the £260 for the hire, it gets a tad expensive

Well thunder and lightning woke me last night, in time to switch the hub off, and today is sunshiny at the mo but more rain forecast for a few hours around the time we were going to have a game of crazy golf with some friends. Then it's supposed to be dry again until the middle of the night when it is supposed to rain on and off again until "on" again most of tomoz!
Why do we bother, poolwise!

Round here you've got to pre-book as well. And the ridiculously limits on how much you can take means multiple trips over multiple days as they have numberplate cameras
Bit of a joke really

No booking here but charges on a lot of items. Oil is limited to 10 litres a year!! The Landy takes 12 on its own.

More than a bit.
Round ours in the UK it isn't quite so bad but you have to pick the day you go.
Worse thing for me was only being able to dump 1 gallon of oil per visit. As I said to the bloke, just doing an oil change on some of my vehicles involves more than a gallon.
He just shrugged and said that if he let me do more he'd have to let everyone else do more.
some peeps will end up tipping it down the drain, as they used to.

That is god awful and especially as they usually can recycle it and or get paid for it.

It's a 45 mile round trip to my nearest and then it is by appointment only. I have just decided it is better to store the rubbish and then get a skip in when I have enough to fill it, but that's not an easy task as they have so many rules as to what I can put in a skip.

Guuid morn
TGIF
Dull n gray but looks like staying dry.
Had my tele interview for Job Seekers allowance yesterday, took ages as they were using an internet call and kept loosing the signal and dropping out.
40 mins later and full of apologies they said would have to wait 13 weeks as I left my previous job for no acceptable reason.
I said no point just cover my national insurance contributions, at which point they said I have probably covered my lifetime contributions having worked since age 16 !
Anyway off to do the big weekly shop
Have a great Friday

Mine is the Aylesbury one. Quite local and a decent couple of lads running it. They are strict with the oil and batteries though!

I had the same reaction. My NI is fully paid up. I was told to apply for PiP as I won't be working again. I just don't want to as I can still get about. Once that changes I will be right on itGuuid morn
