THERE we were on a Friday and since Monday compost bins up and down Bracken were still waiting for pick up.

Approximately 10 compost bins waiting forlornly, from the corner of Southern to Southwood.

This is the third time the compost bins have not been emptied. Residents take it in turns to contact BCP Council.

It was my turn last time. As I made my way through the BCP Council website, I checked the list of roads waiting for their compost bins to be emptied.

It was an exceedingly long list. This certainly makes one wonder why this is an ongoing problem.

Do changes need to be made?
