The black bin out. No one in the road has put their bins out yet. No idea if I’m right to put the black one out. I’ve made a brave move and I hope no one relies on me to get it right. I could have started the whole road onto putting the wrong bins out and caused utter carnage. It’s wheelie bin warfare! |

"Black bins are due on Thursday 
Bin day is Monday  I just don’t know if it’s black or green!"
They messes with ours. The black became the blue, then they took the green and brown away! I preferred it when the fella came and collected them from the yard  |

"The black bin? What is this sorcery 
Green and blue here
We have black, blue, green and brown! Thursday is bin day.
What’s the blue for?"
In Fife
Blue = any old waste
Black = paper/recyclables
Green = glass and cans (now gone)
Brown = garden waste (you pay extra for that) |

Careful putting the bins out early, a woman who lives opposite me always puts hers out first the evening before, I was going away for a couple of days so I put mine out first late afternoon the day before collection, she now puts her bin out early afternoon the day before and gives my house the evil eye everytime she does! |

No, because the plastics doesn't include film, bags, yoghurt pots, butter tubs or actually anything that isn't a bottle. We're trying to consciously reduce our plastic footprint, but still, there's too much of it each fortnight. |
