Arriving home from work on the evening of Wednesday, April 8, I found a letter from Brighton and Hove City Council stating that the recycling day for my street was changing to Wednesdays, with effect from week commencing April 6.
In other words, I should have put my recycling out that morning.
Judging from the amount of recycling boxes I observed left out, I was not the only one unaware of this change. This meant the recycling lorry had an easy run, while we all had to hang on to our recycling for another week.
With planning like this, is it any wonder the natives get restless when threatened with £75 fines?
