Findlay Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 It seems, like Doncaster, Sheffield have stopped green bin collections due to Covid amongst staff. It is never a good time to stop such collections when garden plants and hedges have been growing at the usual summer rate. Couple that with people wanting to clear the gardens before taking a holiday to find they have to sit on them for another two weeks or four weeks and you have a very stinky situation gathering.

I just find it very suspect that we have this massive spike in Covid pings on the T&T app, just whilst we have this heatwave weather..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have to assume it's because more people are heading out to enjoy the sun and congregating in parks and other such places, often with minimal social distancing.

Whats so suspicious about it, havent you seen all the other companies having the exact same issues? Iceland have had to shut shops, Greene King have had to shut pubs, supermarket supply chains are flimsy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Joker Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Sheffield City Council / Onyx / Veolia all share the same half-arsed approach to waste and recycling. Since other city councils have a more joined-up strategy in these matters, I'm open to suggestions that Sheffield moves back into Derbyshire, so we can share Chesterfield's allegedly better council services.

Anybody with me ? Derby City Council has suspended brown bin collections until Tuesday, July 27, due to a number of collection teams having to self-isolate. https://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/news/derby-news/live-updates-widespread-disruption-bin-5683799 There is widespread disruption to bin collections in Derbyshire this week as many workers are told to self-isolate. https://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/news/derby-news/live-updates-widespread-disruption-bin-5683799 we are all in the same boat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Joker Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 5 minutes ago, Jim Hardie said: Back? Yes. Back in the grim and distant past, much of Sheffeld was in Derbyshire. The dividing line between the two counties at the time was the River Don. Since that time, Sheffield has progressed further south, and the Chesterfieldians retreated to their current borders. There's currently a ceasefire between the two counties, and despite the occasional rumour from Sheffield that we'll invade Chesterfield again as part of the Sheffield City Region, the Chesterfieldians have made it quite clear they do not want to be part of South Yorkshire (at least through democratic means). So rather than Sheffield move south and assimilate Chesterfield into South Yorkshire, I suggest Chesterfield moves north and assimilates Sheffield into North Debyshire. What do you think?
