Due to Christmas and bank holidays, our general waste bin hasn't been emptied for nearly three weeks.
We put our bin out last night for collection this morning as we always do (they tend to collect early) and I have now experienced my first "bin etiquitte" drama!! At some point between last night and this morning someone decided to use the last bit of space in my bin to add a bag of their own, meaning that when I went to add the last bag this morning, there wasn't room!
So I removed the offending bag, and added mine leaving the other bag along side my bin. No idea who did it, but it's general waste so I am not intending on digging around for clues.
However, the bin men won't take extra bags so it's been left. I heard the bin men being quite rude and pointing at various households who had left out extra bags and they simply refused to take them.
I now feel somewhat annoyed that I am left with a random bag of rubbish that isn't mine and whoever it was didn't have the decency to ask if they could add to our bin, they just snuck about like a bin ninja in the night.
Am I right in thinking this is not good bin etiquitte!?
