This is a question Amazing displays of ignorance

Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic tells us: "My dad's friend told us there's no such thing as gravity - it's just the weight of air holding us down". Tell us of times you've been floored by abject stupidity. "Whenever I read the Daily Express" is not a valid answer.

The Quantum Fourier Transform?
Anyway, not sure if this is a wind-up or not, but I've lived in 6 houses in Bristol and some of those I was the only one to handle the bins, so either they were nicked from all of them, or we don't have that.

Also, he admits he has never seen these bags left anywhere, and can't remember where he got the idea from.

Perhaps he's thinking of this type of thing:
Our binmen will leave us a roll of special small biodegradable bags, upon request, for the kitchen compost recycling collection.

This means that when they do a bin collection, they can easily collect however-many-thousand small white bags (of eggshells, banana peels, and suchlike) from our dedicated green storage bins, with mininmal problems of flies / odour / general mankiness.

The request system means that taxpayers money isn't wasted on spamming them to everyone, regardless of whether they'd use a lot, some, or none at all.

Ah, yes
I've heard of *that*, there's a phone number to call if you need more bags for the kitchen waste.

Quality Food Training?
Entirely possible that the binmen dont do that around your way, but they do round my way.

Possibly depends on the council
But I've never lived anywhere they didnlt do it.
