My point is that if the bins just got emptied there would be no need for subterfuge and who knows there might even be less fly tipping which also costs a significant amount to clear. I remember the old tin bins and there was never any bother then, the only no-no was putting hot ashes in the bin because it burnt the bottoms out. As for the Army, yes I worked for them a lot and there were Jobsworths there as well, couldn't do the job but enjoyed telling those who could how to do it, but that's bye the bye. Have a nice day.

You must have a short attention span then. And it makes perfect sense to me.

army is nothing like the corps as for understanding 'the regs' as you say i take it you never worked with the marines

I lived in preston for a while...their bin system is a nightmare when you dont know, 2 recycling boxes (one red on yellow for different things), a garden bin, a normal rubbish bin and a food bin, everything else is on a weekly rotation but the food bin is every week, you get given a food bin for inside the house too and bio-degradable bin bags whcih we had to write a letter to the bin men for more when we ran out...bit odd but cleaner, inside the re-cycling boxes you have to seperate the cartons from the glass from the paper etc inside the boxes, took a month or so to work that one out!
