We woke up this morning to find...
Some people must be so stoopid, that they can't think of anything better to do.
My manager told me this week that she woke up one morning to find that she suddenly had solar pwered garden lights on her front lawn. Someone else's lights, apparently.
And another work colleague was the victim of an exploding letterbox while he was watching late night TV.
Anyway, we woke up this morning to find that our wheelie bin was missing.
Stolen. My initial anger quickly turned to amusement.
Why would anyone want to steal our wheelie bin?
Over the last year, there have been so many food scrap and nappy spillages in there, even the flies have abandoned it. We've tried everything to get rid of the stink - from bicarb soda to moth ball flakes. Though we hadn't considered trying to get someone to steal it.
We pity the poor fool who took it. We really do.
Or perhaps it reeked so much, the garbo thought it was part of the rubbish.
Whatever happened, Marge and I are happy.
The council is delivering our new clean fresh-smelling bin to us tomorrow.
Footnote (16/12/05) - I shared this experience with my colleagues at work, and they said it wasn't uncommon. People steal these bins and jump into them to get a little joyride down the hill. LOL! I can't imagine any joy for the person silly enough to get into our bin.
