Did you hear on the Radio that John Humphreys is in trouble with his
local council? He has been helping himself to bags of leaves that
have been gathered up and piled in the street for collection, to be
taken away and incinerated. He is emptying the leaves onto his large
compost heap! He says some of the leaves are his anyway!!!
Apparently the council now incinerate the leaves because they have
been gathered in the street and are not suitable for composting!
Good for him I say, though perhaps he should go and gather upthe
leaves rather than letting the council do the job.

I was watching the leaf collecting in our local park this morning. At
least six people with blowers, a tractor towing some kind of leaf
collector, and another tractor pulling the storage enclosure. I think
that was going to be hooked up to some other vehicle for transportation.
All seems a bit OTT in the current climate
