Anyone else remember the pig bins in the back street where you put any food waste, not that there was much in those days. Painted green I think. Wouldn't be allowed now, it's all got to go through official recycling, not straight to the farmer.

You really hit the spot with those verses, Claytonx. Thank you and well done.
There was never much waste in our house so the pig bins didn't get much from us.
Ma used to use up leftovers and feed them to us in different disguises.
