Can you please think back to how old you were when you FIRST started walking to school on your own. How far it was and whether it was rural or in a built up area.
Much appreciated:)
Pretty sure I was about 7, but I was seen across the only main road, it was about half a mile and a small village, everyone knew everyone else.What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare0 -

The area was semi rural, but there were houses along most of the route.

Just spoke to the man whose company are organising the drying and he was as mad as me. He said if we find out whose it is he will hire a van and take it away. he said technically the skip belongs to the insurance company and he will call his boss about it tommorow.0 -
