The lesser spotted bin man

[VectraMan]

I've just seen one! Several in fact!

All those times in the last couple of weeks where it wasn't "safe" for them to come and collect the rubbish because of the snow and ice in my road, yet today it seems they've suddenly realised that a big refuse lorry isn't that affected by a small amount of snow.

Next we'll be hearing about teachers being able to make it to work.

Mrs MM's school is the only one in Hounslow that hasn't had any snow days. She's quite pissed off...

[mudskipper]

Still waiting for ours - haven't had the recycling collected for six weeks. On the plus side, today is the first day both the kids' schools have been open!

[VectraMan]

Come to think about it, the council are probably only collecting the rubbish because they've run out of salt and have nothing else to do.

No problems here, they come about 4 times a bloody week and at about 7am which means they wake me up with all their racket. At least I don't have to take the bins out, the hausmeister does that for us

Ah..... the annual winter migration from health and safety land back to the real world is occuring

No bins emptied for two weeks,
Schools closed,
Too icy for council workers to go out
No council worker sto driver the grit lorries
Traffic wardens issued with 4x4s so that they can issued parking tickets.

Here in Wandsworth, South London - everything running as normal.
Roads gritted, schools open from what I can see, bin men regular as clockwork.
And we have the lowest council tax in the country


And the trains/tubes have been fine too.

You lazy fookin northeners.

Council can't help that.
