Paul Walker "Dude I almost had you" on the back of an almost standard Mondeo/Vectra/MG ZS. Usually accompanied with tinted tail lights or some random chrome edging somewhere.
HIDs on a car without projector headlights.
Grass growing substantially out of cracks on the drive.
Those small round charcoal barbecues.
Stable door for the side door on a semi-detached house.
Spray painted house number on the wheelie bin.
GiffGaff mobile network.
Wearing a baseball hat in a nightclub.
I agree with a lot there, but aren't they more just things you don't like very much? A stable door on a semi for example. Not really council is it? Spray painted wheelie bin - totally agree.HIDs on a car without projector headlights.

Mine is crudely spray painted. My wife gave me a b
king when I did it. Our bin went missing for a fortnight. I turns out the old lady next door's cleaner accidentally put it in their garage. Then the neighbiur went on holiday. When I got it back and in true PH angry style I furiously sprayed the house number on the bin which dripped and looks uber council. We have a back lane to our homes and to add insult to my wife's injury the bin is now on Google Street View. So council.

Nottingham. I visited the Royal concert hall yesterday evening and because I was a little early, decided to have a walk around the local area. Oh. My. Word. Awful. Dreadful. Horrendous.
Yorkshire is a bigger sthole too !Willy Nilly said:
What is the PH approved way to have your wheelie bins identified? I assume having them sent away to be professionally sign written at HRH's approved wheelie bin sign writers.
To live so far removed from your nearest neighbours that confusion would be impossible, and bin identification unnecessary.Willy Nilly said:

The answer is not to have a wheelie bin at all. The answer is to have council types come round now and then and eat your rubbish which is carefully taken outside by one's aide.wildcat45 said:

To add to the council, I have a "stolen" wheelie bin. It is unmarked and pristine.
After the original one went missing, I asked the council for a new one. I came back from work a day or two later to find a brand spanking new bin on the front path.
To keep it a secret, I've left it un-numbered and its hidden round the corner at the front. I only use it to empty the car based rubbish into, so it's full of Costa cups etc. Every year or so I sneak it out. Due to the layout of where I live the bin men collect some bins on our road from the front and neighbour's organise them into little gaggles of bins for collection. Rthe prefect hiding place.
I nearly got rumbled by a bin man who asked me where the new bin lived as he didn't recognise it. Yes he knows every bin on every street. Fearing the game was up I told him I didn't know so he left it out on the pavement. I recovered it after dark.

Raising council to a new low
Well I'm sorry to say I've let the side down badly, yesterday I purchase a swing seat for our 8 month old, but I don't want to move a frame around the garden every time the grass is cut. Plans are in the pipeline to have a telescopic arm that will retract into the garage wall to take the swing as required, however for moment the swing is supported by scaffolding, last night I noticed the next door neighbour peeking over the fence with a WTF expression on his face, as at the point I'd put the swing part in the garage for the night, do you think I should wear a vest when pushing my son in the swing for full effect?

You lost council points for not aggressively confronting your neighbour and then branding him a "Peedo". Go back outside, correct this error and report back. (They can only lock you up for 24 hours innit)bigkeeko said:

Do you detail it with carnauba wax every now and again to keep it looking factory fresh? After the original one went missing, I asked the council for a new one. I came back from work a day or two later to find a brand spanking new bin on the front path.
