Re: recycle your teabags hyndburn
save up your used tea bags
you can sell the dried up tea leafes as genuine john lennon ashes on ebay and sew all the teabag outsides together and sell them to people at blackpool as string vests

Re: recycle your teabags hyndburn
Before HBC starts on us I wish to point out that we have nowhere to put a compost bun and nowhere to put compost if we did have a compost bin.

What you have to realise teabags are the only constructive thing of any substance generated by Hyndburn Council and it's employees.

you think thats bad i spent 30 mins on the phone trying to convince HBC that my area was a garden area so i shoudl have a bin for my grass cuttings
despite every single house on my street having a back garden , front garden and in most cases a small side area of grass HBC seem to be under the belief that having 2 or more gardens makes you a non garden area
strange however that people in higher band areas of hyndburn like parts of osswaldtwistle that have smaller gardens are considered garden areas but ime sure its just coincidence that higher band areas get better service
if you have a garden you should get the services that are needed period , either all the people get the same service or no one gets the service

Re: recycle your teabags hyndburn
back to teabags
has anyone ever noticed that if you throw a used teabag out into the street in cold weather it looks like a steaming turd

There is enough on the streets to provide us all with FREE FUEL:

Re: recycle your teabags hyndburn
Well I actually think it's a good idea. All right, it sounds a bit extreme about the teabags but that's just the papers picking up on a trivial point and making it bigger than it is. Saving paper by writing on both sides is excellent, saving things like fruit and teabags for compost is also good.
Only thing I would have suggested to improve on it would be for the council to have provided compost bins in the offices and then do a reverse rubbish run once a month to some allotments - by arrangement of course.
