It would probably smell a lot better burning than just laying there. Plus it wouldn't last long and would all be over.moneyistooshorttomention wrote: »Errrm...wouldn't that be rather a stench?0 -

Just spotted your post. I suggest that you read my posts again.
To clarify what I have said. My neighbour (not the ones that live over 40 yards away) was walking their dog in the evening, when the dog started to sniff a bush in my property next to my pavement. He then knocked on my door to tell me the dog had found a dead fox under the bush.
As I have said already, the council have collected it so problem over.
The main road is over 250 yards from my place. The nearest property is over 40 yards from the main road. HTHs and clarifies.0 -
I had same, dead deer, Bambi's mum, on multiple garage site, but the council did remove without chargeWhen an eel bites your bum, that's a Moray0

so you could move it 250 yards, but couldn't put it in a black bag, and put it in your rubbish bin???
and people want to know why their council tax is going up, and there are major cut back to essential servicesWork to live= not live to work0 -

Not with the stench that it would have caused in my bin ! How may times do I have to say this before you comprehend ? Mind you, u have to keep reading posts to get the true picture so I am not surprised lol !COOLTRIKERCHICK wrote: »so you could move it 250 yards ?
Still to far when I can get the council to do it for free. Might as well get value for my council tax after all lol !!!COOLTRIKERCHICK wrote: »and people want to know why their council tax is going up, and there are major cut back to essential services
Who cares as long as I get value for money lol ?
If you feel strongly, there is a general election coming soon so vote rather than pointlessly complaining lol !!!0 -
Like you'd have noticed? What does your bin usually smell of then, evening primroses?stephenliverpool1 wrote: »Not with the stench that it would have caused in my bin!0 -

Caused a stench?
It would have been there a maximum of 13 days, assuming yesterday was your normal bin collection day and you get one every two weeks, like the majority of the country.
Wrapping it in a couple of plastic bags / bin liners wouldn't have caused a "stench".
But your attitude to "why should I care [if council tax goes up]" sort of speaks volumes to the type of person you are. Voting in one party over another isn't going to change council tax going up or down really.
I guess you think fly tipping is okay then too?
Then again, judging from where you live, no wonder your attitude is like it is. Not your fault... just your local culture.0 -

Not being prejudiced with regards where I live are you ? Very naughty and not impressed.

This must be the oddest thread of the year so far! Only the OP knows why he posted it in the first place, but it's cheered-up my weekend a bit, so thanks for that.
At the stage it's reached, I'd expect Godwin's Law to be proven anytime now.....
For goodness sake, some of you, get a grip!!!! :rotfl:0
