Thread: Brought some rubbish back from the "recycling centre"

Hi all

i thought you could skip down to the local scrap

yard & fill your boot with all kinds of metal

not a chance they won’t even let you in the yard now

all to do with health & safety

our local council won’t let you touch anything thats

destined for the skip
