It's going to be interesting to see just what happens when folk are expected to put their paper and say cardboard rubbish out in winter during a gale; I have visions of a quantity of it blowing away as they open the wheelie bin lid, given that you're not permitted to put any recycling rubbish into bags but instead, straight into the wheelie bins. Then there's the tiny matter of unclipping your wheelie bin and putting it 'out' (wherever 'out' might happen to be!) prior to 7.30am even if it isn't going to be collected until say noon or later that day. 'out' might well be at a location where it cannot be secured. So you end up with an insecure wheelie bin that might or might not blow over, it's lid might or might not blow open and before you know it, you've got paper and cardboard blowing all over the place. What are we meant to do, not go to work in order to keep a permanent eye (if your bungee cord hasn't blinded you, that is) on said wheelie bin between 7.30am and the collection time? i tried out the wheelie bin lid cord and almost got blinded when it snapped back and hit my head ...can see a compensation case in the near future

this is going to cost the council money like every hair brained scheme they come with ....i live at the end of a croft road ...i am an O A P with walking problems ..my wife is disabled ...are the council trucks going to come down my road for collection ...if not they will have to pay a home help to put bins to main road ....
-
i am a bit concerned about the recycling project ....if i make a mistake in putting things in the wrong bin am i going to be FINED for a simple mistake ...i am 77 years young and i have senior moments ...also will the bruck wagon come down my croft road to collect my bins ? i am not able to drag them up the steep hill ...the S I C and their blinkered wisdom has not thought the rural senario in the isles

the U S A is out of controll ...they are trying to rule the world but the homeland is going to hell ...untill they have a stable government instead of big business running the country they will be at loggerheads with anyone who does not fill their coffers

as long as a select club runs the S I C (Very apt name ) and cannot make money for their select secret society they will either ignore the obvious or prevericate on the outcome of any solution ...common sense cost them money and the public must pay their price
-
the biggest problem as far as i can see with the whitehouse isit was built by contractors whos heads belong to the goat club ...they want as much money as they can screw out of the project ...the sis membership are also mostly goat club members so us the gullible public will fill their banks ....we cant have a falling out of bretheren can we tut tut ..power rules
