Both dragged round the front at 07.19, to 07,21. Collection about 11.30am.


Lunch time the day before is hard core

Nobody likes a liar.

Usually midday the day before because I usually mow on that day.

[LaLaLand]

Night before. They’re out now - the wagon usually comes around about 10ish.

Where I live there are big communal bins, recycling bins and food waste bins on the street corners and you just bring your rubbish whenever you want. They are emptied daily and even power washed regularly. It's very handy.

…that sounds like an excellent system, Jess…I think there are some ‘communal bins’ in this country but not too many, it’s quite a rare thing…my brother lives in a little community which was once farm buildings but was converted into homes …around 20 or so and it really is a true community because they’re quite remote and cut off as well, from others…I’m pretty sure that they have a communal bin system and it works well…but I’m not sure that it would work well for everyone…

I bring mine to the bins in work apart from glass & Can recycling which we bring to communal ones like the system Jess is talking about in Portugal and now we also have separate plastic bottle recycling areas outside shops and supermarkets that you get money back from like they used to do years ago when you'd pay the recycling charge (maybe .15c on to the price of the drink depending on bottle size and you'd get back when you recycle the bottle)

Ireland leading the way there. I remember visiting my friends in Galway and the shops had stopped handing out plastic bags, years before the UK stopped them.

It is, especially along that part of the coast... Beautiful. I've only been to there and Dublin though, we do plan too have a bit of a tour at some point.

Not a big fan of Dublin tbh. If you do come over for a tour, do the Wild Atlantic way, West Cork and Kerry are especially are beautiful

Yeah, we'd love to do that. I only went to Dublin for a long weekend, ate the stew, drank the Guinnness... Really enjoyed it but don't have a longing to do it again. Did have the world's finest onion rings there though, all other onion rings have paled into insignificance ever since.
