Designer Dandelions




I didn’t know it, but round where I live, we have designer habitats, here in the land of dog poo. Judging by one of them gardens featured on the telly, us lot are at the height of fashion.

A couple of they designer chappies were waxing lyrical about these gardens in a posh competition, and it did look familiar.

Carefully arranged toilets in a mass of ‘designer weeds’ and assorted rubbish apparently are the new wave idea for gardens. Think they called it ‘urban environment.’

Lots of gardens like that round here. Better even – we got gardens with old cars, and bikes. Some have a few rusty car batteries to add flavour. The really good ones grow lots of dandelions to offset the arrangements of broken chairs and hacked up bits of kitchen.

Those designer chappies should come round here if they need inspiration and mind where you step. The pet life round here has an issue with incontinence, just reminding you like.
Yep.

A few years back I wrote a slightly pompous letter to Southwark Council complaining about the filth and detritius in and around St. Saviour's Dock. believe it or not I got quite a nice reply from the public sanitation dept (copied to all the sub-depts) saying they were looking into the matter. One of the individuals copied was the "Director of Dog Mess". Seriously! I wonder what he/she put on their business card? "Division of Canine Excrescent Material" or some such tripe, I shouldn't wonder.

Anyway despite the emailing efficiency nothing changes and the last time I walked past the area it was as filthy as ever.
