THERE was a huge response on The Oban TimesFacebook page to the news that Argyll and Bute Council is to introduce three-weekly bin collections.
Kirsty Chalmers posted: ‘Ridiculous I have 2 recycle bins and a green one, there’s 3 of us and some pets and I still struggle with them being full the way it is. Seagulls have also been lifting the green bin lids and pulling everything out!’
Malcolm Sinclair wrote: ‘Let’s be honest Argyll & Bute Council are totally committed to wasting money, squandering money and generally performing poorly as a council in general ... Solution is to cut back in all services to cover an already poor management of one of the biggest areas in Scotland I hope they are going to implement a new Vermin Control Policy starting at Kilmory!’
