Worra muppet. When they were testing the Freelander they din't want peeps to spot it so they hid it under a van body. they made loads of them for testing on and oft road. Peeps never noticed them. Many were lost due to crash test damage or scrapped and hidden. There be only two left we know of. They is quite special.

I seem to remember you mentiong this sort of thing before. I assume you have reasons why you cannot move to a more salubrious neighbourhood. Meanwhile, my sympathies. :(:(

Well, first of all, if you like litter, Leicester is one of the best places to be. It's everywhere. Decorating roadsides, in front gardens, drifting along streets like a sort of papery tsunami in windy weather. We excel at this rich, vernacular street art tradition. I pick up a lot of rubbish but I can only do so much. People wander around the worse for drink or drugs and kick the wheelie bins over which adds to the quantities available. A number of the properties round here are managed by the council or social landlords and used to house people with, shall we say, 'vulnerabilities'. So they tend to leave quite a lot of stuff around. There's a little footpath to access the back of the row of houses I live in which is used as a makeshift toilet. Including by the police. On one of the very rare occasions I've seen police round here, the officer in question sneaked in for a pee. At first I thought he was getting off the street to have a crafty smoke, but then I realised he was answering the call of nature. Judging by the bottles and cans, there's a lot of alcohol consumed in the neighbourhood. For those who prefer other recreational substances there are needles and syringes, little silver nitrous containers and a rank smell of weed often hangs over the area.

I'm not particularly down on my area. You'd find the same in a good deal of London, Manchester, the West Midlands conurbation and probably many other large towns. Yes it might be nice to live elsewhere, and I'm getting somewhere ready for myself and Xylia. A lot of my colleagues live out in nearby villages of the kind that look cute and have lots of hanging baskets. But to do that you need two professional incomes and well to do parents to give you a deposit. On the plus side, we've got a fairly big house for the money and it's only about 15 mins walk from where I work, and about 20 minutes to walk to the city centre should I wish to brave the spice-contorted citizenry and aggressive begging you find there.
 
Come to think of it, we've just had a letter from the council about the amount of rubbish being dumped in our road. It says they are investigating it and this could lead to unlimited fines and costs of removal, because it's an offence under section 33 of the environmental protection act 1990. It's all written with a rather accusatory tone, which I find a little off putting seeing as I'm the only person round here who goes out and picks it up. Ah well, no good deed goes unpunished.
