Ain't that just the truth. I only get a black bin (non-recyclables) empty

the trouble of picking it up. It never is.


We don't put it out more than every couple of months and, even then,
it is rarely more than 1/3 full. Except today, but I have been going
a post-retirement clear-up.

I think you can be excused for that. Some time ago, a neighbour whose bin
was full before the 2 weeks were up asked me if she could use my bin. I
asked her what she wanted to put in there, given that she had a large bin
herself, she said "disposable nappies"
I said no and she got a lecture about disposable nappies.

I expect she ran up and down the street when the bins were out, stuffing the
nappies in every bin that had some room in.
Not in mine though. They take 200 years to degrade.
