Can I thank the residents of the Park District on the way the new collection of refuse has taken place on Friday.

It appears that there was only a few bags were put in the lanes.

Unfortunately some bags were put out early and attacked by the seagulls and so the rubbish ended up all over the pavement.

Once again our excellent road sweeper Andy came round and cleared up.

If residents wait until they go to bed on Thursday night - when the gulls are not about - to put the rubbish out I am sure this problem will be solved as they are collected by 7.30am.
