£60 for our Green bin here in Hamtun this year..
Edit: West Northants Council. @biggs682 must be in one of the districts.

It'd be £78 here, and due to increase next month.

Just had to pay £59 for a sticker to pop on my 'green bin' so the council will re-cycle my garden waste.

£49 here every 2 weeks from last week to "early December"

We must be lucky here in Leicester as the Council will take up to 15 bags of 'garden waste' up to 4 times a year for free along with up to 6 items of 'bulky waste' (Mattress, Settees, Wardrobes etc)

Mine in Kirklees is just over £50 between March and November.

Water, garbage, re-cycling all for $120 per month.

Garden waste is a separate charge here, on top of the rest.
And they wonder why I want to take it there myself.

Not a bad little do - fewer people than I was expecting and all but one person were fellow retirees. Only planned on a couple of drinks, but kept missing the timing to make the walk back to the rail station so two pints turned into four which has served to confirm that while I like a drink, I'm definitely NOT a drinker any more.

Very chilly evening with ice forming on car roofs even at 8:30pm locally.

It's IMSA at Sebring this weekend with the vast majority of the support races also being streamed on Youtube - currently watching the Lamborghini Super Tropheo having already seen the Porsche Carrera Cup & Mustang Challenge races

Last working day of the week completed. Looking forward to a long weekend and hopefully getting a few miles in if the nice weather continues. It still gets cold in the evenings though.

I had been to see Eddi Reader in the local theatre and really enjoyed it.

Just had to pay £59 for a sticker to pop on my 'green bin' so the council will re-cycle my garden waste. They will still collect food waste, but not garden stuff. As a keen gardener, we compost most but can't with our laurel bushes. Can't put the laurel through the muncher either.

£52.50 round here which I don't bother with. Apart from once per year when I cut back the fuschias and lavendar bushes, all I have is grass clippings which normally go into a black bag in the normal bin when there's not a lot. Otherwise I'll save up a few bags worth and to a tip run when using the car for something else.

@Reynard, Possible reason your YS hunting is getting harder.

That applies to Tesco Express only, of which there are none here locally.
