Hi Yank,
Excellent point!!
Best regards,
Apostolos, since this thread is solved - I will pull it more off subject by telling you that while I was stationed in England (can't remember which of the three times) there was a comdey series on British TV entitled "The Dustbin Men" - yes it was about the trash men and quite funny!
OK - it was on my first tour to England circa 1969: https://www.google.com/#q=The+Dustbin+Men
