It's Blue Bin Day On Frigwell Crescent

Hazel enjoying her weekly jaunt to the kerb. She is hoping to bag herself a binman.

  4. All types of plastics, glass jars rinsed and tin cans emptied and rinsed, paper and cardboard, but not crisp packets.

    1. You get a whole wheelie bin for glass etc!! We have a black box, green box, brown bag, and green bag in Devon, we have to separate all of it. It's very complicated here.

    2. How do you use the bags? It sounds complicated. My mother has a slop bucket, can you imagine that? any left over food, tea bags etc is suppose to go in the bucket, and when its full you empty it in the brown bin, it's never been used, she stores her tablets in it, any left over food gets tipped down the toilet.

    3. I forgot to mention the slop bucket, we have that too. I am quite good with the recycling. No food down the loo as I have a septic tank, though a few bits of dead animal would keep the bacteria happy!

  5. She'd stand a better chance if she was wearing more latex. No one will touch her without her marigolds on.

    We have one bin for all our recycling too.

    3. The corks from your 'marmalade' can be cut in half and used to lag the inside of your wheelie bin, reducing noise.

  7. Those tights look a tad slippery - Are they wipe clean, perchance?

  8. I was going to comment on the slippery tights, I see someone beat me to it! Blue Bin Day is my Favorite... I always Imagine I'm Saving the Planet... even tho' the Kiddos tell me I'm doing it all Wrong since they claim I'm supposed to CLEAN the garbage before I put it in there... just WTF, that's like CLEAN dirt, No?
