Having lived in Lane End for many years, I have always left a wee gift for the men who collected my bin – usually six cans of lager. Now, with blue, food, garden, paper and blackish coloured bins, who do I leave my gift to?

The food seems to be collected on a regular basis, but all the others seem to be a bit hit and miss at the moment.

Please BCC, I am just coming to terms with where a tea bag, plastic bag, and cartons and light bulbs go. However, I am still in the dark as to how I can say thank you. Can you help?

PS. Happy Christmas to all our bin collectors, whatever colour bin they are collecting!
