I'm suffering from insomnia at the moment as going through house move and divorce. Both of which I'm ecstatic about but it's affecting my sleep.
So, this morning at 3am I heard a loud noise coming from the corner shop, next door. I look out and see 2 youths messing about with the big wheelie bin the shop has. They were throwing rubbish etc... then proceeded to try to wheel it uphill past my house! They were both palatic drunk and had what looked like bottles of cheap cider in the other hand. I kept an eye on them and rang the police. I also rang next door for a bit of moral support. Although my dog would've had them if they'd started.
Something must've startled them as they ended up leaving bin and running..if you can call it that...to the park over the road. When I went outside the smell of alcohol was still in the air and I could smell it on myself back in the house. The next thing a lone policeman arrived and I told him which direction they'd gone. He followed and whilst I was watching out of my window I saw them going through the park in other direction, so I rang 999 again and they said they'd tell police. After another 5 minutes the same policeman pulls up and starts moving the bin back. I said 'did you get them?' He said 'oh no they ran over the school field' Some dialogue continued with me shouting at him saying I could've caught them my self wearing a blindfold! He said they'd done their best I went in the shop this morning and told the owner (he hadn't been told) and he's going to show me cctv later. He was asleep upstairs and shocked he hadn't heard it. Next door heard me and said they were laughing their socks off.
I'm just so sick of this attitude. Ok so no harm was done really but it could've been. Plus they did damage to signs at the shop and no one told the owner?
