5, thats 5 bits of cardboard, 5 bits of cardboard under the collar, 10 cardboard bits around the sleeves, 5 cellophone wrappers, at least 5 clips and pins in each shirt making at least 25 clips.

Thats a lot of packaging for 5 work shirts.

That would, in total, struggle to fill an average jacket pocket

If that's what's tipped your wheelie bin over the edge, you're looking in the wrong place

Not being emptied for 2 weeks especially over the Christmas holidays has tipped it over the edge.

Surely you don't expect the HCC to come all the way to Nebraska just to empty your wheelie bin - think of us poor council tax payers lol!!!! grannyfan cindy, at least able to toddle along to work still, in spite of the winter.

Our recycling bins are emptied on a weekly basis, the wheelie bins fortnightly. The last wheelie bin collection should've been christmas day but was collected on Monday. Guess what? It was no more full than any other collection day

As i said earlier in the thread, if anyone is finding their bins are too full they can request additional ones from HCC. They can also request the black one be replaced by a smaller black one if they find its taking up too much room.

And that is what HCC should be doing now. Our recycling bins were last emptied on the 16th December and we are not due another collection until Saturday 2nd January and guess what, after 2 and half weeks of not being emptied my recylcing bin is full, funny that

Id like to thank on one hand and take it back on the other to HCC

Went in town yesterday, obviously busy with the sales and one of the multi story car parks was shut - old town. Why they cant open this everyday is beyond me, its an automated barrier/card operated one

Anyways , went to pryme St instead , avaiding the mega queus at P Q & SS.

This is were id like to congratulate them as they guys working there new the carpark was farily full, so they directed cars coming in to park in the disabled bays which were empty on every floor, which is how carpraks should be.

I think this is now officially my favourite thread.

When I were a lad the bin-men used to walk into your back yard to get the bin, carry it to the truck, empty it and bring it back. Now we have to wheel our bin to the pavement and wheel it back again. But have they reduced my council tax? No, they haven't. They're spending all their savings on grit and at-desk massages. I made the last bit up but it's still FACT.

You should live where I do we dont have any paths and the roads are all totally blocked for approx 30 miles in all directions, even the gritters cant get to here
YIPPPPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
been on the hills with my boys sledging and so on for 5 days now its brill
