Bin Night

Monday is bin night. It is the same as home. Rubbish is collected every week and the recycling bin every second week. They don't have different coloured bins but rather different coloured lids. When I came first I noticed that there were a lot of knocked over bins the next day and this was explained by the fact that the collection is automated. The yoke just dumps them back. It can't collect them unless they are upright to begin with and the non-handle side facing the road. They are collected here at eleven at night, which is strange that such a racket is allowed in a built-up area.
