Thread: Things you find

Noice finds!
We have hard rubbish around here too. (just down the hill from you)
so far I haven't found anything good

Our council's rubbish collection is a joke, they will not accept computers, screens or TV's, they will not even accept cardboard boxes. So last time I put my rubbish out, all the things that would normally be in a cardboard box were just piled up with the other stuff. Seems a lot of other people did the same, because it took the council employees an extra week to pick up all the small individual items (that would have been in 1/2 a dozen cardboard boxes), they have decided to allow cardboard boxes for this years collection, guess it wasn't about recycling after all, Regards Frank.

We have a pamphlet sent by our council that states what will be and won`t be collected. I pleased to see that from what I have seen that about 99.999 % of the local pheasants have chose to ignore this decree. The rule of thumb applied to our hard rubbish collection seems to be, if it can be moved some how to the nature strip, it`s gone. Whole contents of houses have been moved to the nature strip. Fridges, washing machines, stoves even the carpet and underlay. Some of the piles are quite impressive in there size and content. I put our lot out a few weeks early, as you should, so that it could be well picked over before collection. About a third has been taken.

We have lots of galahs and magpies but no pheasants around here.

Belgrave Heights isn't all that far away from Pheasant Creek so maybe it's not a typo .

Ah joys of the spelling of words. One little letter makes all the difference, one could say it was a fowl up, but that would be a play on words, would it not ?

I was up around there a couple of Sundays ago and picked up a 1977 2 door RRC, 2x2 lift, on Cooper 35's (?), 4.4, R380, F&R Maxi, F&R ARB bars, Warn winch, longrange tank, heaps of spares including endless air, etc, etc.

Beautifully put together by Chris............ wasn't on his nature strip and I was happy to make a contribution to the charity of his choice.

cheers, DL
