Glasgow and Glass Recycling

Paid a visit to our local public glass recycling point in Glasgow the other day - only to discover the single purple bin reserved for glass was full to overflowing and clearly hadn't been emptied for quite a while.

"First and foremost, before we all go on a mad seagull killing frenzy. In the U.K it is against the law to kill seagulls or interfere with their nests under the countryside and wildlife act. Some Councils are allowed to cull them however, and usually do this by either poisoning or shooting them. How to catch your seagull. Remember this is against the law in the U.K. I don't want the Men in Blue knocking at the door because someone said that Foodimum told them it was okay to catch and eat seagulls. It isn...
