How irritating. Perhaps the jobsworth thinks that all gardens must be
tiny although what garden refuse fits into most car boots these days
isn't much at all..

Here in France, the capital of bureaucracy, it is now necessary to take
rubbish to a local official first, who makes a list of everything you want
to discard. You are then issued with an official document to take to the
local rubbish point where your rubbish is checked against the list. However,
they don't take lots of items, so people are left wondering what to do with
old TV sets and refrigerators. As someone commented recently on being turned
away - "Here comes the woods...". Ridiculous.
