Do as I say not as I do


Went to the tip this morning with the remnants from yesterday clean-up, like many tips now a days there a bin for lots of items and a large horse shoe shaped wall to throw the rubbish over marked of in zones (garden waste, wood, metal etc.) where everything else goes. Well we were down to the last box and other-half ask one of the workers where to tip the box of rubbish, "can't tip that over there (the wall), I will take it for you" so he promptly take the box and walks 10ft away from other-half, looks in the box has a quick rummage and them promptly throw the box over the wall, though about shouting to him that you can't do that!

Well apart from the tip the only other thing we did to day was to go shopping only to be confronted by the stupid Sunday trading law. The store opens at 10:00am but you can't pass through the till until 10:30am. We got there at about 10:05am (straight from the tip), by 10:20am we had finished shopping and were queuing up with the other 60 odd shoppers waiting to go through the till. Apparently they have timed locked tills that won't process anything until the designated time (in this case 10:30) so there we stood 60 odd shopper waiting for the time to go by. As 10:30am arrived and the till burst into live there was a murmured cheers from those waiting in the queue.
