well i already recycle if we didnt we get a fine and as they now only empty are black bin every 2 weeks we realy dont have a choice.. Unable to recycle everthing because were not alowed to (not my fault) I have a key meter so watch me turn out the lights ect electric bill is high enough thank you.. I have a 4x4 CRV 2L run on petrol.. I do live in the country... Have you seen the state of the roads round here? I refuse to be made to feel guilty.. I cant take public transport because there isnt any (not where i live) We pay the highest water rates in the country simply because we live by the sea.. Cant drink the water because it taste like a swimming pool.. i dont have central heating so cant turn down what i havent got.. So all in all it depends on where you live.. lol kaz x
