I have had to put in an official complaint to southwark after my green bin wasn't emptied properly for a month! A bag of rubbish was left at the bottom of my bin. I told the council & a few days after, they came round but when I checked the bin, they'd taken some of the contents but still left the same bag of rubbish at the bottom & other bits of rubbish! My bin was stinking by now & I had flies. My next green bin collection day was coming up so I thought I'd leave it till then to see if it gets emptied. After Tuesday collection, rubbish bag is still in bin! The bin men attach the bin to the tipping machine but whatever doesn't fall out just gets left behind, they don't bother loosening it if it is stuck or jammed just like whatever falls out onto the ground & misses the van, they don't bother picking it up to throw into the van & it gets left all over the road & pavement. I have been told my complaint should be dealt with within 15 days but that's a bit rubbish (excuse the pun :0)) when my bin still remains unemptied & stinky. I have messaged them back & now waiting for their response.

      They'd been there for days but I hadn't tied them to this thread. Nice work, it was bugging me!

      Milk delivery

      By Sue · Posted

      Off topic, but when I was a kid in Streatham, long ago, apart from the milkman (rarely if ever milkwoman),  who also delivered yoghurt - very exotic - in little glass jars, we also had regular deliveries of coal, bread and cheesecakes (not the kind we know now, they had coconut on top), fruit and veg,  and paraffin (both pink and blue). I'm not entirely sure we have lost "something amazing" by buying milk in shops. The glass bottles were left on the doorstep and the metallic tops were pecked through by birds getting at the cream/milk. Or else the bottles were nicked.  And then there was the rag and bone man.... bell and horse and cart, just like Steptoe. God I'm old. We didn't have supermarket deliveries. We didn't have supermarkets. I remember the first supermarket opening in Streatham. It  was quite amazing having to walk round and  put your own shopping in a basket. As you were ..... Sorry OP and admin.

      Yep, I hear you. Been waiting for modern milkman to these parts and plan to try them out. I still remember Dennis, our Egg-man, from my childhood, who used to deliver dozens in his Citroen 2C and came to collect the boxes the following week. Happy Days.

      I always feel we lost something amazing when we moved away from home milk delivery with glass bottles using electric floats to driving to supermarkets and buying milk in plastic bottles. Hindsight says we should have valued the good old milky more
