I don't think I was though I'm open to being told otherwise.
I'd asked my husband to go out and get our bin in after the bin men had been. He came back saying some of the local children and their parents had put all the bins at the top and bottom of the alley to block it off while the kids played. He didn't want to go down while to parent where there, all drinking, smoking and being loud to get the bin because he couldn't be bothered with the argument.
I said fine, I'm not scared of them and will go get it myself. (He's had run ins with one of the mother's ex partners at the pub, resulting in him being in hospital due to them smacking him with a glass bottle) So that's what I did, infront of them and their children I grabbed my bin and wheeled it back up the alley into my yard, destroying their wall of bins. This resulted in them calling me a "miserable cow" and blaming me if their children where to get run over if they wondered near the road. I ignored them and locked my gate. But now I'm wondering if I should have just left it and waited till the morning because they are increasingly loud and their children and running around screaming and moving bins up and down the alley loudly.
Was I unreasonable or rude for just grabbing my bin and ruining their makeshift barrier?
