I'm a nosey neighbour, but....

(Lighthearted)... why would my neighbour take a small carrier bag tied up, looking like rubbish, out of his house, down the street and put it in the litter bin on the corner, and then come straight back home again? Instead of putting it in his own wheelie bin outside his front door? It was a small carrier bag so it definitely wasn't because his bin was too full.

Probably something stinky…

A fox left a spare rib and a poo on our lawn today. I had to bag and bin them. Maybe they don't want a poo and rib in their bin?

Just go look.

Shat himself and is disposing of the underwear

Something gross - nappies, vomit, smelly food
Something naughty - takeaway, beer, ashtray
Something illegal - drug wraps or paraphernalia
Something sneaky - to make his nosey neighbours go poking through bins

Yes there needs to be a beginning, a middle and an end to every story!

Sex toys def. give the bin a kick and see if it starts buzzing.

He's being security-conscious and has torn up old bank statements showing his account details exactly in half - with one half in his own bin and the other in the public one.

Is this you, OP?

A sprinkling of neat bleach will deal with smelly items in a bin, and maggots too.

Somwthing he/she doesn't want hanging around in his own bin cos it stinks - l do this sometimes!

You need to go to said litter bin down the road and discover what's in the bag.

Now.

Report back.

I've done similar with a dead rat that someone must have poisoned and it died on our land.
