The super recycling chaps have struck again! Had miles to much beer than was good for us ;) were do we put the beer and pop cans when the blue box is full? We put them into 2 black bin bags next to the blue box after sorting through making sure there was only cans in them. Did they take them? What do you think?:confused:

I'm surprised it didn't blow away in the gales....... but truly this council are a useless lot of ******* (I'm not sure if I'm allowed to say that). Hope you have all filled in the anonymous survey that A-B told us all about.

Phoned council today they said this was the appropriate thing to do and to leave them outside my gate they will collect in next couple of days! Why couldn't they have just took them on Saturday! Wonder how much money they cost the council keep having to make return journies? If i get reported off the wardens for littering i won't be held resposible for my actions!!

The council did actually say before Christmas that during the holiday period they would remove excess items of refuse. Instead of which they haven't even removed the normal items!

Of course by now my sack has been rained on so much that the paper inside has gone thoroughky soggy.:rolleyes:

Yes but whose council tax will rise to pay the fine? DOH!

A fine would be a drop in the ocean compared to the money this council wastes - but the title wasn't really a serious suggestion more a grumble that we ordinary mortals face a fine for "littering" by leaving bags out on the wrong day and yet the council causes more littering and gets away with it.

you must live in a very sheltered area Willow that must be the only sack in Hyndburn that the wind hasn't emptied into my front garden in the past couple of days!

Well, my bin STILL hasn't been emptied. They have "promised" me it will be done today. I have just LOVED having five days worth of household rubbish knocking around.:mad:

It would be impossible for it to blow anywhere Less. It's been rained on so much that the paper inside is a sodden mass and the whole thing weighs a ton. Next thing they'll be complaining that they don't take wet paper.
