A new litter bin joined the dog poo bin on Old Mill Road in Newtonhill a couple of days ago. I’d asked council officers to provide a bin following a request from a resident. She had pointed out there had been an increase in litter in the area recently. I was pleased by the very quick action.
However when I walked by this afternoon, guess what? A plastic bottle in the bushes, and on the other side an Irn Bru can.

Perhaps the owner didn’t want them going to landfill, perhaps he should be made aware of Portlethen’s new recycling centre!
Well, you never know! The recycling bottle bank at the Bettridge would be closer though!
