LATEST MOAN FROM YOU AND ME 2018

@Kandy , it's nice to be nice I'd feel proud I'd helped someone in their " hour " of need.
If you ever need them, I'm sure they will return the favour
A good relationship with neighbours is priceless

 

How to dispose of empty co2 gas cylinders:

At Council Tip -

Me - do you accept empty co2 cylinders?
Council man - no response - it appears I must have been speaking a dialect of Mandarin as he stares into the distance

Internet - at home -

Me - checked the Council internet site - all tips accept gas cylinders, so I telephone Council to confirm that my local tip will accept co2 cylinders.

Phone to Council -

Me - do you accept gas cylinders at your sites?
Council man - yes
Me - do you accept co2 gas cylinders?
Council man - don't know - here's the number of the tip - you can call them to confirm.

Phone to tip -

Me - phoned up - engaged
Me - leave for 30 mins
Me - phone, receiver picked up but no one speaks
Tip man - puts down phone
Me - phone, receiver picked up but no one speaks
Tip man - puts down phone.
Me - phone, call cut off immediately
Me - phone, call cut off immediately
Me - start to get slightly peeved

Phone to Council -

Me - the staff at your tip are not answering, can someone else respond to my question?
Council man - hold the line, I'll check
Me - wait.....
Council man - we don't accept any type of cylinder at any of our sites
Me - your internet site says you do
Council man - I'll pass on your request to change the internet information
Me - thank you - phone goes down

Waste of time - the word nerks comes to mind.

The next time I go to the tip - if I see a single gas cylinder - someone's ears will be boxed.

 

We've taken them to a supplier or local garage that supplies in the past and they've been accepted. Not sure about c02 but it's worth a try.

 

Unfortunately they are the large co2 cylinders that are used in pubs to push beer through the pumps - they are rusty with no markings to indicate who they should go back to.

The scrap man won't take them.

It looks like they'll have to stay tucked away in the corner of the garage.

The Council is already under fire for not responding to public or Councillor enquiries in a timely manner or even at all.

The Tip man just didn't want to answer the phone - he's very lucky that I didn't drive down there and place a call from my mobile whilst standing outside his 'office' - I wonder what he would have said when I popped my head around the corner and asked why he wasn't answering my call?

 

Just cut them up and lovingly create a bbq or wood fire from them

 

If they're co2 the cylinders may belong to BOC gases that is why no one will take them, just becarefull with cutting them up, they belong to someone

There should be a name stamped into the bottle

 

Might be better to ask on a homebrew forum, as many homebrewers use CO2 cylinders for their Corny (Cornelius) Kegs.

 

Cheshire West offer very cheap, council subsidised composters of various sizes, on their site

 

California is a mess praying for all !!

 

To the fruity lover's,

After you have had your fun, can you put your condoms in a bin or take them home and not in my bleeding hedge, took me a hour to unclog the chain on my chainsaw

 

@Jiffy - how did you manage to unclog your chain ..... with a toothpick ?

 

Did you wear gloves and wash your hands after:sorry:

 

You need to put a sign on the hedge
