I don't know how some people can afford to waste so much food.I'm always being told that they can't... but it seems that they do.Separating food waste shows you what you are wasting and gives you the chance to make a few changes.It also means an end to smelly wet and dripping bin bags. You can carry it from your kitchen or back door across your home easily.It has been a great step forward in reducing waste and saving money.  I didn't think I'd like it - but I do.

Your rodents must have opposable thumbs if they can open the green bucket with its special locking mechanism. Have you thought of starting a rat circus?

Heaven forbid!  If any council thinks it's going to issue flats with that rodent-haven green bucket food-thing then all my recycling will just be thrown away including that nasty looking green sluice bucket. Unless, of course, the food scraps lorry comes around every day.

I notice that there is a piece on the front page of this website about food waste collections coming to flats in Hounslow.http://www.brentfordtw8.com/default.asp?section=info&link=http://nnet-server.com/server/common/hounspol165.htmThat should help a lot of people to save money.
