Removed recycle bin...

Removed it from desktop with TweakUI, but there's no option to put it into another location... Ideally I'd like it in My Computer, this possible?

You can access the recycle bin from a hidden directory named "Recycler" on the root path of a hard disk.

yeah thats just where the files are kept, but you would be able to move the recycle bin to my docs

I've moved it to my computer with a regedit. Will have a look to see what it was. but it is possible.

Run Regedit and go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/explorer/Desktop/NameSpace/{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}

and copy the key and move it as below ...I think. suggest you back up the registry first, mind...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
