Whenever I put my wheelie bin out which because I live alone never has much in I find about ten bin bags have been dumped against my wall and another 10 to 15 dumped against the neighbours wall opposite, I'm not doing it, they are not doing it, if we were we would follow the adage 'never **** on your own doorstep', so please HBC get some sense, and don't you dare ever try to send me a summons!
By the way how can they tell if someone is or isn't recycling, so far as this particular duty is concerned although I do fill my various sacks and bins with these items of the Earth's resources, (how many asda bags do I need to collect to get a gold star from the Council?), I hardly ever remember to put them out, (indeed most times they do go out are on days Mick catches me on MSN and TELLS me it's recycling day), so when I have a full kitchens worth I take this stuff to the tip where I sort it into it's appropriate skips, so, how is the council going to keep a record of how much and how often I do my recycling?
Unless of course we introduce another layer of bureaucracy and I get a receipt, (hopefully on re-cycleable paper), from the guys at the tip?
Something we'll never see on the side of a HBC Bin Wagon
