You are more likely now to find policemen parked in their car on the pavement being ticked off by locals for obstructing the pavement!

What about bins? I walk down Willow Way, our sad runner up in the Pool talent contest and there is a pinchpoint opposite the pub on Tuesday mornings when about 15 bins are placed outside the flats combined with cars on the pavement which make it impossible to push a buggy down the street. On other days it is just the cars. There is no proper pavement on the other side.
