Residents in one corner of Monkston were completely bemused last week.  First they were told that their rubbish collection day was moving from Tuesday to Wednesday.  And then there was no sign of the rubbish truck!  Thanks to the quick action of Cllr Jenni Ferrans their rubbish was collected – on THURSDAY!

Jenni commented: “Most of the collection went smoothly, but the estate is now split between two rounds. The area of Chetwode Avenue, Lanercost Crescent, Wymondham and the roads off them are supposed to be collected by a different truck, also on Wednesday.  For some reason the truck didn’t collect most of the rubbish last week.  The Focus team still haven’t had an explanation from MK Council but at least we were able to get the rubbish collected the following day.”

Please remember: your rubbish should be out by 7am on collection day.  The area left last week is likely to be collected much earlier than previously.
