    Nonsense drama on my street today. Tomorrow is bin day, some residents have rolled out their green waste bin, whilst others (myself included as it’s the correct one) rolled out the recycling bin.

    One neighbour asked me how I knew (checked the council website to verify) and quickly corrected his mistake.

    The neighbour that had a blue with his missus rolled out his green one and gave me a very patronizing smirk.

    When my bin gets emptied I’m going to wait until he’s outside to roll mine in. Debating whether to blow him a kiss or just wave enthusiastically.

      I wondering what the person who asked how you knew thinks the system is. I am imaging them asking with bewilderment, how do you know which bin it is?!? Maybe they think it’s random each week and you are a magician who can see the future.

        They’re the type that would go to the council office and ask instead of checking online.

        It was passed down in the lore… only to those who would listen to the Elders…
