OT: inconsiderate shoppers

Also glass needs to be sorted by type unless all you are making is brown beer bottles with it.

I think that is all they do with most of our combustible recycle although they do make a big show of taking out a truck load or two that the sorters clean up. It is far from even 10% of what they collect but it is employment for some hard core unemployables.

Actually, we do - its an inductive loop, buried just below the road surface. some cameras rely on a Doppler radar system. I have not seen any pressure pads though, for many years.

Clearly the temporary roadworks ones only have the radar, and they work fine. So there's no need to be digging up the road for pads.

I've eaten food from dented tins with no ill effects.

funny, my council takes all plastics in the same container.

What's this nonsense about carbon, it's all bullshit. The carbon was in the air before it was turned into oil and coal. We're just replacing it. Let the plants breathe more freely!

You must spend a lot of time shopping. I buy food in bulk every 3 weeks= at supermarkets, and petrol about =A350 a time. The rest is Ebay so no= t contactless.

What kind of TSB card? Mine is a debit card for a basic standard curren= t account. It was issued Oct 2017.

Disabled ramps irritate me, it takes longer to walk up them. They take up room. They cost the shop money. I bet the disabled don't pay any of this.

I saw one in Brighton recently. It's not operational - they just couldn't be arsed to take it up!

I'm directly above the centre of the Earth.

Those arent used in anything like the same situation as with complex road intersections.

Those who do traffic lights clearly know otherwise. And we arent talking about pads, inductive loops.

Dented is nothing like opened.

Mine too. The only exception is those binge buys I did of stuff I can't get in my town when I was out of town.

Before my credit card on the apple pay did CDCVM so you never have to use a PIN for any value transaction, the only time I needed the PIN was for a new car battery.

I don't, I do it weekly after the garage sale run.

That isnt viable for fresh food in summer.

Mine doesn't normally go over $50 even when completely empty and out limit that needs a PIN is $100 so you never need a PIN for petrol.

I havent had a card that isnt contactless for almost a decade now.

But you must buy at many shops to make the purchase amount that small.

Ever heard of a freezer?

What price per litre is your petrol? My tank (Renault Scenic) is 50 lit= res. At about =A31.29 a litre, that's way more than =A330.

We're talking about contactless cards. In the UK the limit is =A330.

Your country is further ahead on plastic notes, so maybe your banks got = contactless first. Only about half here seem to have it.

He said attacked, I assumed he meant a big dent that might perforate the plastic lining inside.

Yes they are, I saw one today with a quite busy roundabout with three entrances. They were digging up half the roundabout, so installed traffic lights as the cars had to go the wrong way round it.

Not required, the radar works fine, it can detect a car approaching.

That encompasses the entire universe.

Some of us get paid 3% on our cash.

Because it stays precisely the same as when I bought it, I keep it in the fridge or freezer. Why waste time shopping?
