[aroseinexile]

A few weeks have passed since the last enjoyable thread. What's going down on yours?
Here, unannounced cycle lanes springing up overnight. (FURY)
Dog poo everwhere
And.... Mask wearing.

X What's the local road like into the nearest city

X What the local police force have been busy with

X If this shop is open and what time

So boring!

Mask wearing, or lack of.
Emptying the glass bins, or lack of.
Dog poo, definitely not a lack of.

Do you recognise this dog / cat / bird which is hanging around my place ?

Firework or gunshot? Though tbh, that’s year round, not just around July 4th

Complaints and praise of new bike lanes and pedestrianised shopping streets. Multiple posts with 100s of for and against comments. They are either going to destroy the town or the best thing since sliced bread. Petitions to make them permanent and petitions to get them removed. No moderate voices or even a let’s give them a week of the six months they will be up to iron out problems.

I'm sorry....a capybara has escaped?

The new hand sanitisers stations

Registration VK10 FUB?

Ours are just like groundhog day. I rarely look unless I need help falling asleep.

Well I don't know why we have a local fb page since nobody posts on it except for people trying to flog stuff which is meant to be against the rules. I have posted on it with stuff I've seen while working (outdoors) which gets maybe one response with 'tsk, aren't people awful?' sometimes. I also take pictures when the new summer flowers are up in town and other 'yay for our town' type things and I might get a thumbs up from someone. There are over 350 members.

The students are getting pissed and leaving the park in a state. This is basically the only thing ever talked about. But it's true. Every morning the council uses three trucks to pick up the litter.

Outrage at horses droppings on bridal path (people asked why riders can't pick it up ).

Youths from other areas hanging coming here to vandalise. It happens every summer.

People being kind and offering stuff for free (plants, books etc).

Can anyone recommend a tattoo artist, a sometimes heated argument over mask wearing and roadworks in the high street.

The latter is a long running saga, with people who don't live in the town itself commenting and others then chastising them for daring to do this.

Ours is bombarded with body shop at home posts. Bloody mlm.

Litter
Gas canisters and discarded needles
Outrage over the little shites with scooters roaming around being teenagers, and one with a backfiring Golf that races around the streets at 2am waking babies/toddlers with his stupid fucking car
Drones
