If you go into the council website I think there is a calendar with it all marked down that you can print, at least there is up here anyway.
They normally leave us a calendar which we stick up in the kithen. Its colour coded black one week, blue/green next week. Not had this years so hope they leave it Thursday.

Yep, tried that. Spent the evening popping in and out to see who had put out what. My friend two doors down has alerts as well.

We are discussing a spreadsheet for 2022. I like a good spreadsheet. It's a man retirement thing.:blink:

Our Local Authority used to issue a spreadsheet, with the bin/colour calendar listed. Now, they just put it on their website, and, you can download / print it out for yourself. Fine, except for those who don’t have broadband etc.

Lunch? I have been feeling too tired to even get out of bed to pee. Can't fight that urge any longer so it looks like like my day begins at noon! Hmm, lunch, breakfast, er... brunch!! :wacko:

Putting bins out on day of collection? I was going to say that I wouldn't get up at 06:00 to do it (they collect 07:00 onwards here) but typically I do it at 03:30 before going to bed. That feels like the day before, but isn't! I have to be careful not to make noises clanking cans and glass when putting the recycling out in the middle of the night.

Still no significant reaction to yesterday's jab. That's 26 hours now, but I read some people saying that it took 2-3 days with them.

I have reluctantly talked myself into going in for it on Saturday. Sounds like it might be the Pfizer one used mostly where I’ve to go.

Apart from that pesky wind it’s absolutely gorgeous out there now. Even saw a few butterflies. :smile:

Think I’ll have a little leg stretch before lunch. Still lovely out.

I can't shake that image. Always happy to help. You're next ... :laugh:

We will still have to come down again towards the end of April for her second jab as England and Wales NHS don't work together on this one.
@Dirk , don't make any plans for then as the rain will probably come with me.:laugh:
I'm off to Cornwall for 3 weeks on 12th April. Just stay away from there. :laugh:
