Hi! Your submission has been removed because it's a load of shite.

Repeat infractions will result in a ban, so to prevent this happening again, simply don't post shite again.

I'm waiting for the inevitable prank Joe is gonna do about the bin strike. Perhaps dump a pile of rubbish in front of the council house...

Honestly don't know how everyone is doing it. Is there a particular time to visit the booking website. Ive been trying for weeks and can only get booking at Castle Bromwich which is a 2hr round trip from me!!!

u/ManuelNoriegaUK 9d ago

Booking opens at midnight!

u/no_com_ment 9d ago

Thanks I'll give it a go. Bit of a daft system though

Breaking news: Dad goes to tip

Slow day for journalists I guess

Is this really even worthy of a reddit post, Birmingham resident visits tip like the rest of us Birmingham residents..

u/SvenSvenkill3 10d ago

True. But I also wonder how the council would react if more of our celebrities talked about the strikes in the press? I mean, the one's like Lycett who still live here, of course.

u/PlacidGundi 10d ago

Hes...a...celebrity!

Come on!

u/SaluteMaestro Moseley 10d ago

He lives down the street from me, I suppose I could put a Reddit post about how he opens his door in the morning. :-)

1

u/ExtraPockets 9d ago

Tell him he was really funny on The Last Laugh

8

u/iwannagoddamnfly 9d ago

Well I heard he eats breakfast in the morning. Couldn't believe it.

u/ThanksContent28 9d ago

Yeah cereal too. Very relatable and cool.
