What are those orange things at the exit of Lymm?
Rubbish bins I believe , they ain’t left much room so they won’t be there long judging by the state of the kerbs 
They are the new funnel bins, meant to throw any remaining rubbish in the on exit!
Put there by the Highways division as they are not meeting their targets to clean up the roads, they obviously want us to do that for them 
These bins have Been used abroad for years I think it’s a good idea and should stop some idiots chucking on the road
We have these at the exit to all the Aires. Most are dual bins with a hole at both truck height and car height, had them for years.
All those that crap in a tesco bag now have no excuse, better than leaving it under the trailer…
I was at lymm today and saw some bloke off tv filming something. Have seen him on tele but don’t know his name. Tall thin bloke with glasses.

They shouldn’t have to do it anyway, people should show more respect for the country
I totally agree with you Luke, that is in an ideal world.
We see all too often areas that have been littered when we stop at the roadside.
The fact is the Highways department have an agreement to clean up, and have been falling well short of the statutory duty. The more they can do to deter people from littering in the first place has to be a good thing.
Anything that helps is a good idea, especially if it helps reduce the amount of workers who have to collect litter alongside the motorways with live lanes.
Saw report of this on the Granada TV News this evening.
Reporter interviewed a guy who looked after the cleaning of the sides of the Motorways in NW. He explained how risky the job was for the men doing the rubbish picking and for the number of bin bags worth they picked up in a year, the cost was £40 per bag.

One of the orange things was probably Tango.

Would that be a can or a wag.
Bloody hell. No wonder my burger wasn’t ready round at McDonalds. Thought I was shouting my order to someone through it.

Anybody else find them to be slightly arousing.
Only a matter of time before funnel bin selfies hit the internet and people get stuck in the things.
What about the poor women who now have learn how to throw, or is it just a case of anywhere near the bin will do, surely there needs to be a public training course for these conical receptacles.
What about poor Santa Claus, how confusing are these monstrosities going to be to him on Christmas Eve. Won’t somebody think of the children.

Not just women I’m afraid, I can’t throw (aim) for [zb]
The crestfallen look on my fellow team mates when I got picked for their team (usually because there was two of us left and I was the slightly better option than fatty Timmins… Just!) when playing Cricket or softball at school, ahh, happy times…

I feel your pain, unfortunately I was ‘Fatty Timmins’, last to be picked/first to be subbed.
Always forgetting my PE kit so having to be dressed up in a tiny crop top with skin tight shorts, 3 sizes to small and so much flesh showing that they would make Daisy Duke blush.
My teacher ‘Mr Kidyfydler’ who was from Austria would always inform me that these clothes where all that was available in lost property.
But I struggled through and when eventually everyone else was picked and I stood there on my own looking like Mr Potato Head in Barbies disco gear my good old gym teacher would give me a little pat on the bottom and dispatch me towards the unlucky team who had ended up with last pick.
School days where brutal for me but luckily no long lasting effects.
They are statues of cloe…

Indeed, in fact I’d say you were one of the more balanced members of this community
