I think it was Wednesday this week I was balking in Caleta from the roundabout I front of the bus station over towards Kobe steak house passing the side of the Broncemar. The was a guy in a high viz vest doing a great job of weeding and tidying up the plants along the roadside, however one thing *** me off, well actually two things related in one. The flower beds all have the pican negra and smokers insist in firing their cigarette butts into the flower beds making it dam near impossible for the guy tidying up the flower beds. I’ve seen this in many of the flower beds around Caleta. As a result we have flower beds with litter removed, weeds removed and plants trimmed but buds full of cigarette butts. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
I Wish smokers would be more considerate where they dispose of their cigarette butts. 🤬🤬🤬🤬

Very true, Can.
The other thing that annoys me is that the workers clear all the weeds, then they overwater the trees/grass and the weeds come back. Why can't they dig the weed roots out or put weedkiller down?
In 3 months time they'll be another 'political' campaign of tidying up the municipality.
The other thing that annoys me is that they never finish off the 'tidying' up properly - they get so far then stop!

So true so true Steve, a little bit of intelligence would go a long way

Meanwhile many streets in many towns in England sport gargantuan sized weeds growing out of kerbs and pavements because the local authorities claim they can no longer afford to remove or despatch them, despite being paid around ten times more in 'Council Tax' annually than we pay here!

I suppose if they did a proper job there would be less work for them, and therefore less
Money, especially if those workers are paid by the council and work on a 'as and when' basis, sort of seasonal employment. Unless they are volunteers.
