In an island bed surrounded by footpaths there is a horse chestnut. At

paths to break up.


I was under the impression that horse chestnuts were banned as they
constitute a serious risk of damaging cars and injuring people if the nuts
fell on them!

Protectors and Hard Hats and Toetector Boots and Ear Defenders and Hazard

What a sad state this country has come to :-(((

Sacha will now repeat what I have said ;-((
