Strangely our green bin and brown bin have been stolen - southwark council are brilliant and will replace them free of charge, so why are they worth stealing? I would also like to big up the bin men whom actually come to our door to collect the wheelie bin when I forget to put it at the front of the garden - I am never awake early enough to thank them but they deserve a mention!

I've had a few bin thefts over the years(always replaced within days of me contacting Southwark Council)-mainly the recycling boxes-which I guess were handy for storage-but I too wonder who steals wheelie bins?


Jeremy- you might be in the situation I was in a few months back-council replaced my bin as requested-but it got nicked before I even got home form work!-wouldn't have known except my neighbour tipped me off.

They cost about ?80 so worth nicking if you are that way inclined. Useful on a farm , in factory or if you have a business and don't want to pay for a business waste contract. Also good for Hiding in as "My Close Friends " tell me. If you get the ref!

    • This presumably hasn't been done by vandals. It's hardly a Sycamore Gap situation. So if it's been done by professionals, unless it was a mistake (unlikely) there must have been a good reason, as it would have cost money. It would perhaps have been a good idea to put a notice on the tree explaining why such drastic work was done, but usually (I think) it would be either because of disease (often not noticeable on the surface) or that the roots or branches  were endangering nearby structures. As already said, nobody on here is likely to know. The tree department in Southwark Council are helpful in my (admittedly limited) experience. Please post on here when you have found out, as I agree what's left of the tree looks pretty odd. Depending on why the work was done, possibly they intend to remove the rest as well?
    • I have a very stupid question. I want to get a SIM card to put in an old mobile as a back up,  in case despite my best efforts my mobile gets stolen and I have no way of contacting anybody quickly, eg banks. Can I just buy any old cheap pay as you go  SIM card and put say ten pounds on it and it will then be fine for years (with the phone kept charged!) even if I don't use it, or do I have to use the phone  every so often to keep the SIM card valid?
    • I hate to see trees cut down to such an unfinished state. Unless the tree is home to wildlife, an effort should be made to remove & replace. Otherwise, it's just so useless & unsightly.
    • Given the level of care in Dulwich Park, I would not expect this to be careless or unnecessary. It will grow back.
