    Hi East End guys, please note above article states our garbage will be collected Friday, December 29th. Problem is that December 29th is a Sunday. If garbage to be collected on a Friday I think that someone meant to write “Friday December 27th”. I see article does note East End recycles will be collected on Friday 27th December . I mention the incorrect date for the late December collection as I would not like fellow East Enders to miss the first after Christmas collection.
    Merry Christmas everyone.
