Bin a bit confusing!

It looks like it's not only us residents that are confused by the new bin emptying rota.

In Heywoods Ridge all black bins (with one exception that was quickly changed!) were duly assembled for collection yesterday.

At 9.30am the bin wagon appeared and made very short work of them, especially as most were more empty than full, since they'd been emptied last week.

Residents scuttled around and most bins were duly returned to gardens by 10.00 (what a tidy lot we are up here, and obviously mostly retired!).

Then at 10.30am another bin wagon reversed up the road with great determination. They must have been most disappointed: hardly a bin to be seen, and only empty ones at that.

Has the rest of Audlem had a proper run followed by a dummy run? Maybe the second crew (from Macclesfield?) were just learning the round?
