Unfortunately no shows and disappearing buyers do happen on the forum as elsewhere. Sometimes life events interrupt plans (accidents, early baby arrivals etc. - both have happened to my buyers in the past!); other times people are just a little too casual. I find that in life event cases the buyer is usually very apologetic and I try to accomodate them. In the other cases I growl inwardly and see if anyone else bites!! I have found that my stress is lowered if I don't give out my address etc until a time and date for collection is made - not always a 100% guarantee, but it helps. As a side note, I'm sorry you were insulted. Personal remarks where we might be missing key information are never kind or helpful and best avoided! -

Sue, I received my leaflet today. I see that they don't mention a caddy liner, which as you say would mean the bin gets messy so I used the link on the leaflet to see what that said about food waste. The website says 'You do not have to line it, but you can buy your own compostable liners or use newspaper'. Pity that wasn't mentioned on the leaflet. As for general rubbish the council website says 'If you have a bin you must put your waste in a bin bag first'. It's a pity the leaflet specifies black and the website doesn't. I assume they want it bagged as the examples of general rubbish on the leaflet such as crisp packaging and nappies would need bagging. Small items could fall out during rubbish collection and soiled items would need bagging to prevent contamination. -

Yes, mine has been, which is why the new guide confused me.
