Reasons to be grumbly

Yesterday morning I was woken to the sound of cascades of breaking glass & tumbling cans. The recycling boxes were being emptied – a day later than scheduled, or 15 if you count the collection missed altogether because of the weather. Some people had even been waiting since before Christmas.

To be fair - & it’s such a rotten job the collectors deserve not just fairness but grateful thanks – they were definitely out working hard around the village on Tuesday, but were obviously having to break more frequently to go & offload.

Fingers crossed, we will now be back on schedule without further disruption.

Until we get all the traffic delays come spring as they start trying to repair the ice-gouged potholes in the roads.

Some of us are only happy when we have something to grumble about.
