Dumbbin Men, Sorry Dustbin Men – Part Two
Well after my last blog about this I complained to the council but it seems nothing changes for the better, this week it was the black bin again, so I put it with the handles facing the road to make it easier for the dustbin men as I usually do.
They’ve just been, emptied the bin and lodged the handles in the hedge again this week. It wasn’t as bad as previous weeks because I could this time get one handle.

On the plus side, the bin was placed next to our drive this time and not down the road!
Oh well I suppose I should start putting the bin out the same way they bring it back!

Dumbbin Men, Sorry Dustbin Men
I recently posted a blog about our refuge collection personnel and them not taking some rubbish and now we have another issue with them, I’ll get to that in a few moments.
Recently we heard news about one council in Somerset I think, which has stated that a dustbin must not have it’s wheels even an inch on gravel incase our employee’s stumble and fall, yeah I know ridiculous.
Well please tell our dustmen to stop leaving our bin three mile down the bloody road, OK an over exageration but my mother lives here also, could you imagine if she had to go get the bin, a 72 year old woman being forced to walk down the street to get her bin, because some dustmen can’t simply leave it where it was put.
When they don’t leave it down the street, it’s been known on a couple of occasions to block the driveway so when I come home I can’t get the car straight in.
I have respect for people that do jobs like this, it’s hard, you’ve got to endure all weathers and it’s not the cleanest of jobs but it’s the small things that matter especially with Christmas tip season coming.
PS we don’t recycle as much now, it all goes in the Black bin now!
