Of Rubbish and Turnips
Aug. 1st, 2020 02:14 pmIt seems I need to completely rearrange some bits of the back garden so we can get our bins back in during the week.
For most of the past year or so, we've just been leaving our wheely bins out in the communal area where we take them for collection, even though technically we're not supposed to. But everyone does it, and dragging the things out of the garden can difficult when they are full, especially the rubbish bin.
But some absolute turnip has recently been dumping whole bags of garbage in our bin.
I'd been wondering how it got so full so quickly lately. And why I was struggling to manage keeping it a reasonable volume. A walking vegetable has obviously failed to read the great big rainbow house number on the lid.
The theories abound on who is doing it.
There's the possibility that it's a child being sent to take out the rubbish and just putting it in the first bin they find, but my theory is that it is an adult who is trying to hide their sins. Especially since at least one of the bags was full of McDonald's and other fast-food wrappings. And the recycling bin has been filled up with Irn-Bru cans.
All of this after there kept being a weekly Pizza Hut box shoved in our bin for months before lockdown (Half the time in the recycling bin, because fools just want to ruin a whole bin lorry full of recycling with their greasy pizza crusts.)
Mostly, I am full of rage today about that, but my general annoyance could also stem from the mere three hours of sleep I got last night, and the fact I am really late sorting out what I am going to eat for lunch.
