Bins and two bag system here. Sorta works, if the bin men show up. Otherwise it can be sat for two weeks.
That sounds like the shop I worked in. Lass who worked Sundays in the run upto to Christmas had to pay the same as the idiot we had as a part-timer who sat in the shop for 16 hours a week.

You can check for planned work down here. It's the unplanned, emergency work that caused the problem. And has been stopped to allow scheduled work to be done. They can continue it once the scheduled work is finished!
In the meantime, the whiff of gas can be tasted in the air.
Hokey Cokey bus stops, it'll never catch on.
That cyclelane still quiet?
Most of the day?
Maybe the match will throw a curveball or summat.

Two words, erse and elbow (I know there are three.
The lot I was employed admitted they hadn't a clue where they'd patched up the roads in the area..
3 folk in charge of that part of the job....
I used to let bloke know if I came across fly tipping on my cycles around the many back roads,
through here, you phone or mailed in and van headed out, took a photo then back to office to pass on worksheet.
My man? just called a lorry and up they headed, simples.
Think they got called out for the local stuff.
I did report some recently and cleared with 48 hours (could have been earlier).

I don't know if quiet, last Fri even and Sun for a couple of hours is the only time I have left here..
now in the 5th week of feeling yeuuugh (2 week covid) and now I'm struggling with something else (antibiotics are knocking 'f out of me:laugh:)
Might end up at club tonight though....

That's why they get promoted, keep them from hurting someone else.
Sounds just like round here. You report online, verbal reports aren't taken anymore. They pass it onto a team that deals with sorting out which department(s) should deal with the matter. Someone goes out, checks, and if they feel its not their job it gets passed back.
Previously you got put through to the correct department, and they dealt with it. Different sections within the same department don't talk to each other, let alone other departments. Keeps the managers and supervisors in work though.

You still not getting out an' about. Winter will soon be upon us, with the cooler weather.
"Might" doesn't sound too hopeful.

Correct, create paper trails and jobs...

Be careful, it'll sneak up on you the moment you're away from the house.

And some are that good at all of those they start to believe themselves.

Slightly breezy at times this morning, with rolling light showers thrown in.
Both gone for now.

No scout hut?
Yeah, nipped over for a while...
Not a lot going on...
left and got a Maccys, starting to get a bit expensive, methinks.
Could have split a fish supper instead.
Banana milkshake ended up, almost .5 ltr of 'ice cream', banana ? none (flavouring...
Still dry here.

Dry since midnight, haven't seen the forecast for today....

You went but there were no biscuits.
Bit by bit, the prices are creeping up. Sizes are getting smaller as well. They dropped their 1/4 pounder some time ago.
Think Nesquik, that you put into milk at home.

Snap on the dry part, last forecast was for a dry Bank Holiday Weekend. Would you believe them?

Just because of that little detail, you're going to give up trying!

I can hardly step over the door..
I can't sleep?
I put on the radio..

I find opening the door easier than stepping over it.
Wouldn't be a small tornado who's stopping you leaving.
Owt on the wireless worth listening to.

Leeds has gone more like London for their weather forecasts.
Light rain = Downpour
Slight breeze = High/Strong Winds
Cold = Anything below 20°C
Get on the ferry to Ireland, non of this brexit malarkey.
His round I suppose?

I took a leisurely journey through the canals of Yorkshire last night past satanic mills and stuff, watch a canal program for over an hour, canal boats once fascinated me but after seeing all the wee niggly bits, I'll exist on dry land.
It's panic on't telly for any rain, wind event..
N of watford just get on with it.

have you seen the cost from Cairnryan?
I once fancied a cycle round the Antrim coast, forefathers and all that..
Got my Isle of Mull trip paid for a lot less than the return fare.
I've cruised back and forth on many an occasion,
used to laugh, folk saying don't give that lot yer money.
They were connected...
anyway, what's for brekkie, Bob?
