Some Days… Waking Up Is A Chore!

[Less]

Today, well it was bin day, I dutifully put out my brown bin everything sorted and correct, I live alone so none of my bins are ever full, within seconds it would seem that was changed by one of my neighbours, overflowing and a giant cardboard box full of polystyrene placed on top.
I noticed the binmen emptied my bin but placed the box in my gateway, I went out and asked why?
The reply was , I should sort my rubbish properly, I explained that as was obvious by the address label on the box it wasn’t my crap. Eventually they removed it.
Next came the jolly rattle of my letter box as the postman placed enough fliers to keep a national newspaper provided with paper for the whole population, for a change though there were some actual letters.
First I opened marked ‘important’ from council, telling me that they were doing away with paper information and how it was most important I register by email, (that I did at least twice about 10 years ago still waiting for confirmation email from them).
Next letter, BBC licensing yet another threat to remove anything electrical from my house even though I don’t use their services.
BUT, the biggest ball ache is, so far today not one of the horses I’ve backed has won, how can I be expected to cope with rambling inflation if they are going to be unreliable?
