Couldn't agree more!
At one time M&W reported to the council that they had trouble in ascertaining what I wanted done...(have never ever asked what I wanted) and that I had such a big garden with lots of flower borders..(absolute total lie!!) It's postage stamp sized and hardly any flowers, in fact what few flowers I did have they have gradually mowed down.

All the world is mad except thee and me and even thee's a little odd!

Hello Jasmin.

I use tiny pic to upload my pictures, its easy, let me know if you need a hand with it.

I would be up in arms if the council did that to my property, like Cherry said, it's a kin to vandalism.

That would be great but please keep it as simple as possible 'cos I soon get quite confused!

It's run by the council for people who cannot manage to do their gardens now and we pay a small sum of between £80 - £100 per year according to our means so..as I said to the man at the council office..."beggars can't be choosers!"

Yes that was the last few shrivelled fruit really. Took the pic just to show the crowding but now all those old canes have been cut back.

The council is well aware of my complaint as I have had an ongoing communication with them about it.
The last of this saga is that having joined a forum called "Streetlife" which is apparently run by a couple of councillors I posted this very subject on what had happened only to end up getting some very cutting remarks from people and to top it all, a response from "Mow & Grow" who told some out and out lies about the situation... sorry to be so blunt but I was appalled at their attitude and told them so which again lead to more insults from others on the forum. Needless to say I just cancelled my membership and have decided that it's just flogging a dead horse as regards continuing with my claim.
I have been very depressed about the whole thing and find it unbelievable that people can be so hurtful!
