Occasionally our recycling bin will vanish, and once our wheelie bin has vanished.


No idea where they went, but they both randomly turned up a few days later!


I live at the top end of LL, so you'd think you'd nothing someone wandering around with a plastic box of used newspapers and pizza boxes!

The binmen throw them into the back of the dump truck.... I've seen them lol.... seriously. Recycling obviously isn't one of their main concerns. I was going to say something to them but felt slightly intimidated.

In my world I'd prefer to think there was a wheelie bin militia but alas... it's just Southwark Council doing a sterling job at refuse collection LOL

    • What I don't understand is those that are clamouring for this says there is an urgent need for more teachers yet they also say there are lots of places at schools for the children leaving private school due to dwindling pupil numbers (at primary especially). Surely then the teacher "gap" can, in part, be plugged by this?   This does seem a very blinkered, dog whistle attack on a certain part of private education and it will be interesting to see how the courts (and Europe) views it. Given the government accelerated the rollout to happen in the middle of a school year (which no-one thought was a good idea) probably shows they may not believe they are on strong ground - it feels like a "beg for forgiveness rather than ask for permission" situation.
    • I have tried Ancestry (library) and Findmypast (library and paid). They both pay for archives to digitise some of their holdings. Forget details, Both has things other doesn't but think Ancestry is ahead. I found the search facility frustrating - you needed to play with options a lot.   My dad did research before these sites existed which was harder work but more fun. I recall instances where Ancestry made wrong assumptions (something like mire than one John and Joan Walker in same town).  
    • 01102528 and 01902663 are the two linked Police crime report numbers associated with the individual in the photos.
    • Montessori schools are private so will have to pay VAT.  Not sure what the confusion is. I expect most of us who never even considered sending our kids to Prep school, Montessori or Steiner have particular sympathy.  Of course in a years time we will see and you may say "I told you so".
