    If you had a wheelie bin chock-full of maggots, would the binmen take it away?

    Who can take your trash out?
    Stomp it down for you?
    Shake the plastic bag and do the twisty thingy too?
    THE GARBAGE MAN!!
    Oh the Garbage Man can
    The Garbage Man can and he does it with a smile and never judges you.
    Who can take this diaper?
    I don't mind at all
    Who can clean me up before the big policeman's ball?
    THE GARBAGE MAN
    yes the garbage man can
    The sanitation folks are jolly friendly blokes
    courteous and easy going
    they mop up when your over flowing
    and tell you when your arse is showing
    etc...

    Wandsworth. Probably the best council in the world.


    I'm not joking.

    You should have emptied the bins over the Tories.

    We have one green box for bottles which the grunts managed to lose between the truck and my drive and 3x green bags for garden waste that have cleverly morphed into one since yesterday.

    We don't have wheelie bins so all other waste is left in black bags for the crows and ravens to rip apart, I look forward to picking up soiled nappies and cotton buds from my drive when I get home.

    One time I loosely tied the handles on a green bag to stop the grass cuttings from blowing away, when I got home I found the handles had been cut off.

    All the forward thinking councils have separate bins for food waste. Saves on tulipe going to landfill and you only have one stinky bin.

    We do have a total of 5 bins/containers per household though...

    I remember a WW II PoW story where one of the prisoners was a doctor. What little meat the prisoners were given was so foul that he recommended that they let the maggot eat it, then eat the maggots themselves. True story.

    You can try but it never sinks in. He doesn't know that £10,000 is not a million, for example.

    Or should we increase it to 1000+% to get some services?

    FFS, they let people like you have the vote. No wonder this country is on the edge of bankruptcy.
