Ah, East Dunbartonshire council, how I love thee. After carefully putting out various bits of cardboard with this week’s recycling, your binmen carefully picked it out again (so it seems Tesco food-packaging cardboard is OK, but Amazon cardboard envelopes aren’t) and left it on the street.

So rather than do a 10-mile return journey in an estate car to take five bits of thick cardboard to the recycling centre, it’s all going in the bin.

Hurrah for recycling!
