    Amazing no refuse collections because the trucks have problems getting through the estate roads, how do they think the residents feel when we have to slip and slide our way up and down them everytime it snows or freezes? We used to have a grit bin but it was taken away, now we take our lives in our hands just to get to work and home again. Shame on you TWS, do you think we will get a reduction in our council tax for the inconvenience ha ha! I think not.
