Miguel Sanchez Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 I have green bins and blue bins. Nobody uses the blue bins properly and they never get picked up. The green ones get picked up whenever the bin men feel like it, which actually doesn't always include when they actually come round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanius Mullarkey Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 One of the missus pals coming round this afternoon and of course she’s swanning about in her Matalan pyjamas. ”oh, she’s on her way now, I’ll just go and have a shower and get ready”. Every fucking time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 My son's hoping to go to uni in Dundee, and I'll be visiting often. Sounds like some place. Looking forward to having him translate parts of P&B for me. 4 hours ago, Theroadlesstravelled said: I have 2 bins. One small normal bin and one bigger recycling bin. The normal bin fills up quickly so I end up just chucking whatever in whatever. You're lucky. The flats my mum stays in have a communal bin area; some of her neighbours do that, and aren't too fussed about whose bins they chuck stuff into either. If the bin men open the recycling bins and find non-recyclables inside, they don't empty them, and the council have stopped collections to the flats before as punishment, as it happens all the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Edinburgh bins; collected Fridays at our bit. Food caddy: every week Grey bin (landfill): every fortnight Green bin (recycling): every other fortnight Brown bin (paid permit): garden waste. Every fortnight April-October. Every month in the winter Blue box: Glass. Every fortnight. Handy for seeing which neighbours are alkies. PTTGOMY: the gales whip down the street in spring, autumn and winter. I've lost two food caddies this way as the lazy twats of neighbours can't see the house number on them and return them. The wheelie bins also tend to wander too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joking apart, I take perverse delight in telling my Japanese students how all their perfectly separated rubbish eventually gets mixed together as they don't have the resources to segregate once it reaches the refuse depots. Didn’t realise DJ Laing had contracts that far east. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say, the perv factor has gone downhill in recent years. I can’t do it all on my own so hopefully you can help out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boghead ranter Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 On the Falkirk Cooncil site, you can synch the bin calendar into your phone calendar of choice (Google for me) so that you're always up to date with which bin on what day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Stanton Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Renfrewshire Council, grey bins, blue bins and food bins one week (Thursday for me), brown and green the other. Plus in our housing association area we have bin portering so no need to put them out or take them in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 "Help YouTube by doing a quick survey". No, YouTube can GTF considering there's an advert before and after every video now/numerous ones between longer videos. Give me 30 minutes peace in return for a survey and I'll gladly do it though. p***ks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
