The grass is always greener on the other side!

We sat on the green green grass
The greenest we could find
But ***** sat on something
The cows had left behind.

If this seems familiar you are showing your age - a poem popular in my youth. Nonetheless, I am regularly perturbed by the green vegetation we find on our roads in Chadwell, it seems we are the forgotten land and I am always having to remind the weeding department, of our plight. You may not be aware of this but on a recent BBC documentary they discussed the potential for all our streets to be conquered by natural vegetation in less than 10 years - one up for nature methinks! I have reported the following roads:

  • Roxy Avenue
  • Flora Gardens
  • Grove Road
  • Primrose Avenue
  • Gresham Drive
  • Glendale Avenue
  • Grove Road
  • Park Lane
  • Nursery Road

if you are aware of other areas of excessive weed growth, please advise.

The Weeding Section have responded recently:

"The contractor has just informed me he has treated the Chadwell area and in next week or so you should see the results".
