Effing neighbours...

...the scum that they are.
They keep taking our wheelie bin, so much so that at one point we ordered a new one - then ended up with two when they got bored with the first one (or something). So, to avoid any further confusion I painted our bin with our door number quite clearly. They have still managed to get their bin confused with ours, as I discovered tonight when I saw our bin, full of their crap, outside their front door.
I decided that enough was enough, knocked on the door and calmly asked if they would please let us have our wheelie bin back. Cue a tirade of abuse so I couldn't get a word in, some name calling and a door slammed in my face while the guy's banshee of a girlfriend screamed from the living room.
Alright, at the end of the day it's just a bloody wheelie bin. But the principle is that they should learn to damn well leave ours alone. I'm sick of having to run outside as soon as the binmen have been so I can claim what's mine anyway. Luckily they're neds and we don't like them anyway so I had no guilt at all when I reported them for anti social behaviour.

ISPs - any suggestions?
Posted Nov 11, 2009
We've been with o2 for a while now and have problem after problem with them. Now, who can recommend a decent ADSL ISP that doesn't throttle and has a very generous (or unlimited) download limit?
Don't suggest BT or Virgin cos we've been with them

Setting the record straight
Posted Nov 4, 2009
Right.
I've been a vegetarian for around 17 years. I've been actively involved with various vegetarian societies and groups along the years and consider myself fairly knowledgeable when it comes to all things vegetarian, but even now people still ask me if I eat fish when I tell them I'm a vegetarian.
This is taken from the Vegetarian Society's website:
"People who don’t eat red meat but do eat chicken or fish are making a very important first step, but they aren’t vegetarians. We usually call such people meat-reducers."
SEE? WE DON'T BLOODY EAT FISH!
