saltire, we put in a raised vegetable bed so that dd2 could help grow stuff. they told us we had to remove it (brand new - 1 year old, proper raised bed etc). iirc we were billed for them to remove it after we had gone.
i am absolutely certain that if we visited the mq today, the bed would still be there, in use. and yet we paid them to remove it (a pointless exercise). funny old thing.
that was hants, too. they had kindly left two years worth of leaves and overgrowth in the garden, including all the previous occupants pots (one might assume they also got billed for de to rectify the garden, in fact) and, indeed, a special treat in the form of a dog toilet which had been mown over to serrate the plastic top so that unassuming toddlers would get snared and slashed as they crossed the middle of the garden. oh, and an old concrete post, ten feet tall, chucked under the rhodedendron bush. (the old clothes line post, presumably). to be fair it was a big rhodedendron...
but once the kids and dogs had thinned it out a bit
it was amazing what had been chucked under there...
i've got another 'gotta go' though - march-ins with estate wardens who treat you like a criminal instead of a 40 yo with 3 children at staff college. 'wilful damage will not be tolerated' my arse. you know who you are, shrivenham.
i've got my pre-march-out in two days. the joy.
