One course of action if anyone objects to this litter being put under their windscreen wipers could be they pop it in a envelope and send it back to whoever put it there, no stamp attached. |

Bit of an over-reaction to me. Just fold it up and put it in the bin when one goes by one would be my idea. |

I've heard of much worse. People returning junk mail secured to a brick with elastic bands, not to threaten the junker but so that the return postage costs much more. |

If everybody did that the Post Office would suffer as the recipients are, as far as I know, at liberty to not accept either the brick or the unpaid postage. I think Greenham Common has the right idea. |

...or even better: put it in the re-cycling when you get home. |

No it's not tricky - stop those doing it in the first place - or put up posters on their shop windows and see if they like it!! |

Prevention is better than cure though. |

I have just received an A4 envelope packed with junk inviting me to advertise my business on a website. It is photocopied, with spelling mistakes, and little or no punctuation. The cost is from £35 up to £455. The junk mail "offender" is WEST BERKS COUNCIL. Is this what my business rates are being spent on ? Pass me a brick User 23 ! |

Interesting, do tell us more! Which website are they promoting - their own?!?!?! All examples of spelling mistakes and inappropriate punctuation will also be much appreciated by everyone here! |
