I must have the World Cup on my mind, I thought you were talking about the dog.

I am wondering how many will realise the importance of Pickles the dog?

It's strange really, the Tories reckon it's their policy to oppose fortnightly collections, and yet I can name several Tory-controlled authorities where they've changed to fortnightly collections.

Not far off. I didn't know the Brazilians had gone and lost it again though...

Fortnightly collections would be fine by me. Between us we don't even fill half a bin in 2 weeks so a family of 4 should be fine.
Any more you should pay.

Yes but is it is a bin conspiracy. I have no issue with the frequency of collection. It is free as part of the council tax and so we should be willing to adapt to keep the council taxes down.

A bin conspiracy... Of all the things to conspire about bins are pretty low on my radar TBH.

Same here. Is is even worth conspiring about bins? Only if you are really dull.

Aye, if you can only see conspiracy in refuse collection then you really are missing the bigger picture.
