LETTERS – Wheelie bins for general waste?

I’m pleased to read that South Holland District Council is still promoting the brown wheelie bin for garden waste.

I only wish they would offer wheelie bins for general waste as I’m fed up with the flimsy plastic bags being ripped open at night by cats or foxes.

As far as the terrible green bags for recycling waste, perhaps the council could offer evening classes on how to open the damn things!
