Today at 8.45am a JCB transporting - what looked like builder's debris drove onto the car park land adjacent to our flats and deposited the debris onto the land, near to the far end fence - I didnt notice it first time round but 5 mins later it returned with another lot - I shouted down at the driver and waved my fist and uttered several industrial expletives(english I dont know the turkish as yet) at him and he did not return. I live in Girne and this was right in the middle of a residential and part commercial area. What is the law on fly tipping here? is it similar to UK? When I returned at 5pm I did notice that there was no more rubbish tipped so I think he knew that he wouldnt be welcome on another return.

bondi while you were bending his ear did you note the registration number and whatever did you tell the police? You are a witness.

I have just read the blogs re flytipping - message 2 seems positive on the subject - sorry- from the second floor I couldnt see the reg no of the JCB. However, today a very large artic arrived and several smaller lorries - there was a divi up of what looked like packages of all sizes of Bauhaus furniture - it was really funny to watch -a bit like several Bernard Cribbins trying to take off of the artic and then putting into separate piles for each lorry and so on - only wanted Eric Sykes there with a clipboard! What was of concern though the polystyrene packaging was just left to the four winds. I do have the reg no of the artic and one of the lorries. Sengun artic reg no FA 739 and lorry TCF 806 - any help to the Facebook group?
