Local council introducing an additional £40 year charge for a 'green bin' collection (thin end of the wedge for other stealth charges?) with no communication. Apparently the robbing announced on their Tw@tter feed and FB and some other 'soshal meedja' platforms, must have got to a couple of hundred people at least from the 200k+ local population.......
Nah had this for sometime. What's worse is charging the £40 and not delivering the bin until halfway through the collection period. Artificial lawn for quite a few years now so bliss.

Why have people stopped using hyphens? When I opened it, the box marked "Three Cheese Flatbreads" contained many "three-cheese" flatbreads. Young people don't seem to use them at all.

And are they flatbreads, flat breads or flat-breads.
It's only the "Mr Potato Head" brand that is losing the 'Mr'. The individuals, Mr and Mrs Potato Head will keep their current forms of address.
I think children have been swapping the bits around willy-nilly (if that phrase is OK to use) for decades anyway.
I'm surprised they haven't been sued by the other Mr Potato Head - Wayne Rooney.
