Sir,
I have just returned from my annual sojourn on Arran and noted the recent coverage in the Banner on the recycling issues.
For me this was dejà vû as a few years ago I had a similar locking of horns with Perth and Kinross Council over the design of the new recycling arrangements in Blairgowrie. A balustrade surrounding the skips made it difficult, and indeed dangerous, for frail people to raise the rubbish bags and then bridge the gap between fence and skip.
