Bin Men are due tomorrow - I've put the bin out
a) just in case they make it (they got through last week when the bus didn't!)
and
b) because I can at the moment and it may be too slippery tomorrow!

Anyone else being hopeful? Or am I being ridiculous?

It's the rubbish bin - if it was recyclables I wouldn't have bothered.

I got enough to enable me to walk to work this morning!!!
Left at 2:30 though and I've brought work home to do tomorrow - I don't 'do' frozen snow!!

It was beautiful in the wee small hours of the morning though.

I am not going to put mine out as i have to take it to end of the road here.

Put out back until next week, only got one bag. I only have one bag every 2 weeks anyway.

In our area people have been told to put bins out so that they can be collected as and when they can make it. Luckily ours was done yesterday before our snow.
