Today we've started our year long groundscare contract for the local gypsy site.

When we turned up at 8:30am so not to wake them too early, we found it deserted.

The local police municipal informed us that over the weekend there had been bit of a set too between a couple travelling families.

The grass was almost knee high and annoyingly the Grillo high tip machine we had booked a demo of had broken down.

So we strimmed the banks shielding the camp from view and flailed the rougher grass so it could be raked dry in the afternoon. ( warm here..)

I learned quickly not to touch or move any rubbish in the grass.

The gypsies crap everywhere then cover their turds with say a kitchen cupboard door.

A pair of pliers, same treatment.

Cardboard too...blerk.

Luckily there was a Mac Donalds nearby to have a wash up before lunch.

Still, on the bright side we are several decent pallets and a ladies bicycle up on the deal!

Yes, I consider it a test.

This being our first grass contract for a local government body and one which should open doors for us.

Next cut in 2 weeks will require the camp guardians presence and again a passing police municipal.

We made the place proper lovely all the same.

I'll bring a bottle of disinfectant hand wash next time..
