Its just a slight climb from my front door up to the footpath and letterbox. 54 steep narrow steps. Then a further climb up the driveway to get to the road.
When I first bought my wee home 1990 the City Council rubbishmen would come right down to my door, load all my rubbish into a sack, and carrying it up the steps to their big rubbish truck.
All changed with "restructuring". Now I have to lugg my rubbish and recycling up the 54 steps. But that isn't far enough. Our joint driveway is classed as a Private Road, so I have to carry my trash up to the top of it to the Public Road. If I've used the official City Council rubbish and recycling bags...then their contractors may take it away....
So this evening I've lugged up 2 bags of rubbish and 1 of recycling. Combined Step and Weight training!
On the plus side - ours is the fifth lot of these flats as you head down the street. After all the steps of the other 4 lots of flats only the most persistent door-knockers make it to me. A relief as we've a nationwide election sometime this year.
Have a happy Monday Folks,
Huggles and care :o)

You mean you get free exercise. Steps make the firmest butts. Other people have to pay loads of money for a gym subscriptions.
Hmmm, been living here for 18 years, looks at own very ample "Rubinesque" behind ............. guess I need to go up and down the steps a few more times a day, any butt muscle prescent is hiding under the blubber. Huggles
Here and I thought my 3 flights of stairs to my 3rd floor flat were bad. I just pretend I live in the penthouse. It makes the climb a little less unpleasant.
And I've not noticed my bottom getting any smaller or less flabby since I've live here. (7years)
Maybe if I'd known it was good for that it would have worked.

Sounds like it's getting as bad as here. If the bin lid isn't shut, they wont empty it. Pathetic!
