More about wheely bins...
As the dark nights set in, a thought came into my head. If the council own the wheely bins and I injure myself putting their bin out, could I sue them? and are they insured against residents injuring themselves when using council property.
I then thought, how can you be fined for leaving your bin out, as it is`nt your bin. Surely by taking the bins in you are doing the council a favour! Finally, if your bin gets lost and you have to buy a new bin, then it`s your property and you can remove any chips thereon. Food for thought or a load of rubbish.:D |

What brought that on?
Nice food for thought though if somewhat enrgetic for the mind, so are you going to give it a try? |

Re: More about wheely bins...
I presume we must have entered into some sort of contractual agreement with the council, were the public are liable for any injuries resulting from moving 'their' wheelie bins.
On a serious note, Hyndburn Borough Council do have a system for collecting people's wheelie bins, if they can't put it out for collection on the correct day themselves. No I don't use the system myself....yet. Also please note I said something positive about HBC, thus making me not their biggest knocker....just a big t*t.;) |

There was nothing in it this week. The Observer must not have liked the press release from HBC.
