So in summary you're boasting that you're too stupid to know how to use your bins?


Recycling is hardly eco-madness. It's not like they're expecting you to compost

So to summarise, they want me to pay £1000 a year in tax where the only tangible benefit is getting my bins emptied which costs around £50 a year to provide. They then want me to waste my time sorting the rubbish into different bins so they can sell it for recycling probably generating about a £5.

All the time encouraging people to have more children by paying people for each one they have.

The day we go to a one child per family policy is the day I'll take this environmental nonsense seriously. Work on the cause not the symptom.

But they are, d000hg, they are.

I've had no letter from the Surrey Bundeskartellamt to tell me what this new dusty bin is for!

I mean, subservient citizens such as yourself might have the second-sight instinct into knowing what one should do, but mere mortals such as myself are flummoxed by such generosity as to receiving a shiny new object from our overlords.

I'm wondering whereabouts I can place my burnt offerings on it to reduce the extortionate kickbacks I make to the Mafia, sorry, er, unaccountable council.

Indeed, brother. Yet another mysterious bin appeared in the middle of my driveway this week. I've no idea what its purpose is in The Age Of Recycling. It has a blue lid and a grey exterior with extra wide "Pimp my Bin" low profile rubber wheels.

The most annoying thing is that it is much wider than the grey bin that I put all my waste in, so is blocking the way whenever I try and get the lawnmower through the alleyway to the front garden.

There's no choice but to take yet another of these "bins of colour" and "recycle" it straight down the local industrial waste site, if I can get it into the boot of my car.

If not, I'll strap it to my back and take the motorbike instead.

When will this eco-madness, a thinly veneered hat tip to land fill, stop!?!??!

you get fined in Germany for not doing that.

We do here too, its called £1000 a year council tax for emptying the bins. But you pay the fine if you sort rubbish or not.

Why? I always ask for them back. Haven't you heard of re-cycling?

One card with a list of names in it. Hand it to the first person on the list and instruct them to tick of their name and pass it on to the next person on the list. Easy

What does your butler say?

Mine said: "Pehaps a little later, Mr Nomadd, when one has returned from The Gentleman's Club."

Never!

[KentPhilip]

Not at all.
And I'll have a glass too, which I'll pour down my underpants because I like the feeling of the fizzling that goes on down there...
