Default Scrounger update

On April 30 Charlie produly stated:
And fifteen bags of nice clean dry leaves. I was out of leaves and I
sure do appreciate people bagging them for me, easy to carry, stack,
and they remain dry until I need them.


Yesterday and this evening I thoughtfully taked up a load of leaves (acorn
by the looks) lying along neighbours fences on the footpath. These will be
mulched and used around 2 new fruit trees I have just bought.

I have been raking up loads every few days along the street for the past
month or more. Some have gone on my gardens as mulch, into a compost bin as
leaf mould whilst others found their way to work for a colleague who is
building a lazanga garden. Sweeper truck got most of the street leaves last
week. Those along the fences were about the last.

Would've appreciated if people had bagged them for me. Inconsiderate.
