Letter to the editor: All this warm sunny weather has made my garden shrubs grow fast. So I ended up with a car boot full of garden waste.

I went to Foots Cray dump last Wednesday, but it was a wasted journey. It was closed. There were loads of other angry recyclers in cars there.

Apparently, as part of the cost-saving exercise, this dump has been closed on a Wednesday since early July.

The council has not publicised this closure and this could lead to more fly-tipping.
