On a trip to town this week I noticed that there were more than the usual amounts of greenery growing out of the pavements, in front of peoples houses and even growing out of the tarmac on the roads!
Now, I tread these pavements all the time but this year everywhere is looking more overgrown and uncared for than ever.
I've also noticed that many mini-ponds are developing in every road I see, known to the untrained eye as 'pot holes'!
The councils do try I suppose, they have planted lots of new trees in certain areas around here, but then nobody ever seems to water them leaving them to battle for survival when there is no rainfall. I wonder why householders don't look after them? I expect they just assume they are being attended to by the relevent council departments. I bet most people would help out if only they knew.....communication is all it takes!
Is anyone else experiencing worsening conditions? Or are they staying the same? .....or is anywhere even better?
I feel despair that my own town is looking so run down.
Is it all down to money, inadequate leaders, apathy or are they just plain useless??
