Off for burgers at lunchtime with #1 child, can't wait. Have to take a month's worth of garden waste to the tip this morning as they're striking and not collecting. Going to have to try to get a full wheelie bin in the car...

I love a good burger, but the wife isn't so keen. Burgers are now a treat for me.. Honest Burger is my go-to chain for 'It's pretty good'.

I put the green (it's green for garden waste here) bin out on Friday and they emptied it, which I consider a win given all the local politics about strikes and stuff.

Your other post suggests you're in or around Bristol. We're going to Milk Bun in Clifton, I hear it's great.

Edit: burgers are brilliant

I don't get up Clifton much - I haven't tried there yet. I'll need to remember it next time I am in need of a burger. Thanks!

Recently I was at the dump an the guy in front of my had two full wheelie bins in his car. I thought he was the smartest person ever until I saw him try to 1) maneuver a full bin out of the car and 2) upend the bin into the skip.

Emptied half manually, then picked up and tipped in the rest. Was an absolute bastard, especially with an unknown pain in my hand from falling off my skateboard last weekend. I couldn't empty the rest by hand - the stuff at the bottom has been there for a month and started to compost.

One's a lot more interesting than the other. But mainly ordered in age rather than rank.

I was half thinking making a burger today. I quite like Jamie Oliver’s burger recipe.

Had my first ever Wendy's (Camden) recently. Burger was fucking lovely. Chips...indifferent.

Sympathy upvote for wheelie bin wrangling. Awaiting the my car smells like compost post.

I tied the bin lid down and I think I got away with it. Tried not to think about the thousands of insects that were probably trying to get out on the ten minute journey.
