Latest on Bucks bin collections (From Bucks Free Press)

you would have been able to . if the bloody roads was gritted,

ive just past a council lorry with gritt on the back of it in kingsmead rd.
two guys one with his feet up on the dash board smoking,
other one stood outside drinking tea.

thats why the roads are not gritted. and our taxes are paying them to take it easy

oh your are so kind, all powerful council

meanwhile our green bins are not emptied and i have been charged for that on my council bill if they are going to collect one kind of bin they can collect another, total shambles as per usual WDC and we are always allowed to leave and extra bag out over christmas so why are you saying it as if you are giving us something extra

Haha. Luckily after yesterday's statement that all collections were suspended until after christmas. I didnt put my bin out. And guess what - they just came and emptied the ons which were.

Cheers for the excellent info.... Would someone ask the a rse to talk to the elbow?

Oh well, thats alright then! Extra bag collection - whoopee!! Now, who clears up the rubbish once the local wildlife have clawed their way through them?

Well done John Lewis for a great bit of ADVERTISING.
I have had to take John Lewis PLC to county court for not fixing my Toshiba Teleivision Properly under their so called 5 years Guarantee. Its WORTHLESS, just a selling point of SALE JARGON.

I sent them my reciept and then heard nothing! Then i complained and they sent someone out to collect my tv and gave me a loan tv untill my one was fixed.
I then got a call to say my tv was fixed. When they dropped it off i noticed straight away it had a crack on the top casing and a piece visibly missing. Not only that they said they wanted to take their tv back. I refused to accept my broken tv as the picture was not proper as it should be, pixels were missing and the fact that it was damaged.
I sent a letter to their managing director and they had the audacity to say they wanted £600 for the loan tv because i didnt give it back. Anyway, i issued a law suit againt the Managing Director of the whole company, in his name. That made them sit up and listen a bit but they had it changed at court to J L PLC.
They refuse to give me £1300 back which i paid for the tv and say its over 5 years old but cannot prove this at all. Hence i will be fighting my case in High Wycombe county couRt in Feb 2010

SO JOHN LEWIS PLC HIGH WYCOMBE BRANCH.
YOU ARE NOT SO GOOD AFTER ALL.
I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR FROM OTHER PEOPLE OF HIGH WYCOMBE WHO HAVE HAD A SIMILAR EXPERIENCE AT THE JOHN LEWIS HIGH WYCOMBE BRANCH WITH REGARDS TO THE "SO CALLED"5 YEAR GUARANTEE ON THEIR TELEVISION SETS

Called them on a Friday night about mine and they advised they could come and collect it Saturday and give me a loan.
I said I would pop in on Saturday morning which I did and swapped my faulty TV (which was just under 5 years old) for the loan, they said it would be about a week before I would hear anything. 3 days later they called to say it was beyond repair and I could have a new unit delivered of the same value or I could use the cash value and upgrade to a new TV with a new 5 year warranty. I popped in and chose a new TV which cost me an additional £50 for a higher spec model and got a new 5 year warranty.
Superb service.
