The message
from Owain contains these words:

That, Mary, is because your house is one of the few in the street -
probably in the land - where the bin lorry doesn't collect, it delivers.

While I was on holiday the neighbour who I asked to put out bin out
forgot. Since we had fortnightly collections here it'll be nearly a
month since it was last emptied.

Good job we've got a compost heap!
