Shameless flytippers have dumped over 80 tyres on an elderly couple's driveway with the council are refusing to pay to have them removed, the Mirror reports. Hugh Cunningham, 81 and his wife Diane, 76 were left 'angry and astonished' to discover the mess on Saturday evening after returning home from visiting friends.
The OAPs now face a hefty bill to get rid of the pile of tyres as Canterbury City Council are refusing to dispose of the dumped load as it is on private land at the couple's home in Upper Harbledown, near Canterbury, Kent. Mr Cunningham said: "At first I thought there were about 20, however we soon saw there were many more.
"I haven't counted them all exactly, but I think there could be about 80. I was angry and astonished when I saw it. I was upset - I just thought 'how can someone do that?' How degrading of the environment."
