reduce (speech) reuse (newspaper) recycle (ing day)

It's bin day today, to be more precise it's green bin day (we have two bins green for garden vegetable and cardboard waste with a little bag for paper and box for tins and that. A black one for all the other stuff. Each gets collected fortnightly) one of my neighbours has put out their black bin, that's their month ruined.

Today i got on and didn't even ask for my ticket and the driver knew what i wanted. If i was a grumpy and impolite person that didn't thank people the whole transaction would have been carried out in silence.

There was a woman on the bus reading a newspaper visibly shaking her head in disgust. On closer inspection i realised that she was reading an article about immigration in the daily mail (the migration figures for 2005 have just been released 565,000 people arrived wile 380, 000 left giving a net increase of 146,000. a decrease from the 2004 figures. I doubt this the the way that the mail chose to paint the situation.).
