We have been on fortnightly refuse collections for a while now in my home town. There’s a lot of people complaining that the collections aren’t often enough. I never have a problem, my wheelie is rarely full. Why? Because we recycle as much as we can. I was amazed how much cardboard we generate every fortnight. And its bulky. So outsort your recyclables and problem solved!

Anyone out there got a Lexus RX400h? I bought one to reduce my emmissions, which I think I am achieving, but the fuel consumption is not as low as I was led to believe - I’m doing c. 30.5 mpg, thought I’d be getting nearer 35mpg. Silent reversing is the best - stick it into reverse and you are as silent as an owl!

Have you seen “An Inconvenient Truth”? Al Gore, so eloquent, so intelligent - how did he get beaten by Bush? Incomprehensible. The documentary is a wake-up call to us all - essential viewing.
