They day even empty my recycle bin last week all because there was a couple of small polystyrene plant containers in there which I wasn't even aware of so instead of taking em out they stuck a flippin big sticker on the bin instead, bearing in mind the bin was choc full with other recyclables. Back in the day everything went in a black bag with no probs but now as well as emptying rubbish they are now rummaging thru the rubbish as well hoping they can go on a power trip if they find a crisp bag and wave there stickers around. No tip from me this Christmas mind ya does anyone still tip the bin man anyway?

They divide the recyclables into different compartments on the lorry Phil, hence they are going to come across anything that shouldn't be there. I remember being told back when it started that they wouldn't empty the tub if it had any wrong stuff in it. I can't see why, if it's there, they can't drop the non recyclables in your regular bin to save the hassle.

It's called snobbery 55, simple as that.

I have no time at all for people who look down on others who simply haven't been as successful financially, and that, even in today's age, is what it comes down to;I'm a better class than you because I have more money.

And please, spare us the "I used to work in in a petrol station y'know" condescending cr@p.

Des,

My posts yesterday were a complete wind up aimed solely at you because I thought you were the driver of the bin waggon,I was basically just seeing if you'd bite or would realise it was "tongue in cheek".

You took those initial posts without nibbling.....I think you know my humour by now.

Others don't but quite frankly I don't give a f o o k about them.

Bottom line is that the 1% pay cap on public service for 8 years is a disgrace and if I was in your position I'd be howling about it.

For anyone who doesn't know you I can report you look like the late Terry Pratchett and the body of Brad Pitt......or is it the other way around :-)
