Tomorrow is bin day and I have no idea which bins to put out. The council online calender is batsh** crazy (the grey bin isn't even shown) and seems to suggest *all* bins go out tomorrow which is all I can do and see which ones are collected and over time extrapolate (good word probably Innapropriately used) which week is which. For now it is bin anarchy.

@emsquared ours should have been today but is tomorrow just for today (having been Monday instead of Friday the past couple of weeks previously to this week). We’ve only got two bins, the green normal one for actual rubbish (tends to only have one maybe two tied-up bags for the week) and the recycling one with the orange lid, which apparently actually does get recycled at the big recycling plant in Beckton.

@u0421793 Wow. I dream of only 2 bins. We have 5. One general waste (confusingly green) monthly , two recycling bins, one is paper and cardboard(blue) and the other tins and accepted plastics (grey) fortnightly but not the same week, a purple glass bin (8 weeks apart) and one brown bin (food and garden waste). Fortnightly, which is free for food but 50 quid a year for garden waste.

Damn that's difficult for my old brain to follow.
Hope it manages when the council here change to a 3 week cycle.

@daveSmeg @u0421793 curiously my neighbour has put our bins out and made the decision for me. Ours are now the only bins out so far so wait to see if we are a) playing mind games and confidence beats accuracy - OK I'm not involved except by proxy b) we (the royal we) are wrong in bin choices c) some neighbours may disagree re bin choices and put other colours out d) the council collapses because even they have no idea e) our lack of snow changes overnight and and the bin men give up anyway

@emsquared @daveSmeg it’s as simple as that

Ah yes, as easy as working out the quantum entanglement of adding the blue to the number 9.
