Today, through my letterbox I've received:

x1 A5 leaflet advertising Pizzas
x2 A4 leaflets advertising Pizzas
x1 A3 leaflet advertising Pizzas
x1 A3 leaflet advertising a Chinese Take Away
x1 A4 leaflet promoting an Indian Restaurant
x1 A5 leaflet about Window replacements
x1 A5 leaflet for computer repairs
x1 A5 leaflet - in case I need a new roof
x1 A5 leaflet - promoting tree services
x2 Business Cards from two taxi firms

The day is still young - no doubt I'll have more rubbish for the recycling box by tonight. I want to put my rubbish into the recycling box, not someone else's.

Grrrrrrrrr

Other than that, I'm having a good day :D

Its mad isnt it

We live in a very lovely coastal village. We sell eggs at the gate and have an honesty box that works (never as yet so please do not print this for fear of people finding us) had any dishonesty. We have had the odd fight at the gate for the last eggs but the promise of a delivery to their door when the hens produce always makes them happy. All this is in walking distance in our community which is small. I only know a few people we never see who buys our eggs unless we hear them fighting for them). But the other day I had leaflet put in our honesty box!!!!

:) honestly!

Well, I wasn't disappointed, late arrivals included:

x2 pages of A3 from Homebase
x1 A4 from the Co-op
x2 pages of A3 from Somerfield
x1 A3 from Iceland
x2 huge pages from Asda and finally
x1 A5 from a charity - I can live with this one, although it gives me another gripe in 'wasting' donators money - but we'll leave that one to debate another day.
