Don't put plastic trays in your recycling

Don't put plastic trays in your recycling

Boring but important message from the council. We don't want any more excuses for the recycling not to work!

Shepway Council is renewing its message to people across the district to help its recycling efforts by only putting out items listed on the black box or blue bag.

The black boxes are for glass, tins and cans, and plastic bottles only. The blue bag is for paper and cardboard... some people are putting out items that cannot be collected and recycled including plastic trays and packaging, cardboard drink cartons and broken glass.

This is part of my website The 'Gerald that I built in a frenzy of excitement when I first came here in approximately '04. I'd been a frequent visitor for a while previous to that so I am technically one of those Down From Londons you get now. The site used to be a lot more dynamic with a gig calendar and voting for favourite venues and stuff, and I know it was a handy reference for those who were thinking of moving to the area. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though just a couple of miles) it doesn't get as much attention as it used to. Ironic really as The town is becoming the exciting place we always thought it was just about to. My name is not Gerald BTW, this comes from the name of a fake paper in an episode of Brasseye or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, and how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are great aren't they? Do contact me if you have something to contribute, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on the twitter.
