11 September (Part 1) - I've bin sabotaged

BinA new brown bin was delivered to me soon after seven this morning. A quick walk round shows a 20% (excluding flats) take up in my road with rather more in the next.

A neighbour’s new bin already contained a collection of tin cans and a plastic bottle presumably dumped in it by a passer-by. Abuse is likely to be a major problem.

My own bin is so poorly made that the lid won’t shut and cannot be made to shut short of attacking it with a hacksaw. If I leave it out with the lid up will it prove to be a good excuse for Bexley council not to empty it?

An apology: Yesterday’s blog linking to new pictures of the not yet in use Bostall Manorway railway footbridge unfortunately took you to old pictures. The link now goes to the correct place.
