At the risk of sounding like one of those web cabbies with a daily moan, here goes......

I can see their point .... however, to uphold my position as "King of the Cynics" :greengrin, it comes over to me as "Boo hoo, we don't like these little plasticy things that make our job harder than it need be."

You're on a roll here.

If we could resolve our constitutional differences we could start a radio talk show together. Let's call it "Fu** you all, everything is pi55ing me off".

Your proposed title for our new series is spot on - love it. :aok:

BTW., I could have taken the place of every character in the Grumpy Old Men Series and save the Beeb a fortune. :greengrin

The balls already rolling with regards to phasing out plastic straws.

I work in catering and bar supplies and our sales and stock holding for paper and biodegradable plastic substitutes for straws has gone through the roof in the last 6 months. At least 2 bars in Edinburgh I know of now have a 'no single use plastic' policy.
