  • Wow, that's sad. Yes we are, they really layer on the stuff here, at places where the lorry has to pass multiple times (e.g. a roundabout) you can even get 'salt dune' deposits from it building up. Wrecks the drivetrain on my bicycle - inevitably have to replace components once winter is over.

  • Very good points!

  • Hadn't considered that, grit lorries must fling a lot at the base with each pass.

  • Agreed. So quality of British manufacturing and workmanship. Now someone has to pay to have them all replaced.

  • Yes, all weakened and then blown over in a recent storm. Corrosion from sea-salt in the air maybe? There are tens of them about, which does not seem normal

  • I expect that I 1. underestimate the forces of nature and 2. overestimate the quality of British manufacturing

  • Ha it's a shared bin (which I just realised makes the delivery even more risky).

    Standing in the bin and jumping up and down is a good strategy to compact at a later date. Otherwise, the hydraulic press of the bin lorry can handle it :)

  • Figure the idea of the name is a network for air/flight transit

  • Not at all, thanks - I'll be sure to revise the directions to remove any doubt!

  • I tend to just stand in it and jump up and down if that's what you mean 😂

  • no sale selling fee

  • Yes, the original tickets were from Ticketmaster and refunded. But StubHub (separate selling site) still want a cut even though I obviously can no longer sell the tickets, if that makes sense? Which is ridiculous because obviously it's not my fault the concert was cancelled.

  • I have no plan to pay it currently... see if anything comes of it. Would be interested to know if anyone else has ignored fees from them

  • This makes sense, maybe I should remove my note (to leave under shelter by the bins) entirely

  • Interesting how the thought of knocking on the door also seems to have been short-circuited
