...to take a stinky nappy to the bin for me?

How big a tip would I need to give for this to be reasonable?

there isn't a tip big enough to make that reasonable!

Get out to the bin yourself! Grin

MadgeBishop · 01/11/2013 20:52

At least a fiver!

AgentZigzag · 01/11/2013 20:53

A tenner?

Fiver if you're skint.

He'll do it because your gall will confuse him, it'll only be afterwards he thinks WTF?? Shock why did I do that?? Grin

If you don't ask you don't get eh?

MadgeBishop · 01/11/2013 20:53

Where is MrCock? Can he not do it?

AgentZigzag · 01/11/2013 21:01

Grin at Mr Cock.

Would love that name just for the shock factor at being called to go in and see the doctor Grin

MrCock was upstairs working to deadline, 4yo being a pain, dog being weird, 15mo screams if I leave his sight....

The idea occurred to me, but never fear, i didn't actually ask him!

Yank, I have missed you!

Say hello to MrCock for me. I cannot believe DS1 is 4.

YankNCock · 01/11/2013 21:04

Actually, MrCock did turn up briefly at a mumsnet xmas do a few years back, and got a 'Mr Cock' name badge. He was very proud. I think we still have it somewhere. He does have his own username, but it's not as good.

I was at the very said do Grin

YankNCock · 01/11/2013 21:08

Hi Madge, did you have a name change, or am I just old and forgetful?

Ds1 has started reception, I am still chairing his preschool's committee which has sucked away all my mumsnetting time for over a year now.

I pm'd you...

So back to my stinky nappy issue.... what if I had broken my leg and was on crutches, and dh was gone overnight, and it was raining, and I gave a fiver tip? Would that work? (Only one of these things actually happened earlier)

OP posts:
MadgeBishop · 01/11/2013 21:16

Could you not just have put it into a plastic bag and tied it really tightly and popped it outside the front door?z

If you were on crutches and DH was away, how would you carry the pizza box from the front door? You could open the door, say to the driver you are in a predicament, could he take the pizza into the kitchen for you and whilst there, would he mind getting the bag of rubbish from the side and popping it into the outside bin on his way back to his scooter/car.

YankNCock · 01/11/2013 21:22

That's where ds1 comes in..
He can open the door and carry a pizza box, but isnt quite tall enough to open the black wheelie bin and get the nappy in there. Plus it's dark out.

If you cover my travel costs, I'll chuck the nappy in your bin for a tenner. Nowt wrong with a bit of rain Grin

I've just been out delivering curries. If you'd offered me a fiver for something that'll take 10 seconds, then assuming it was all 'contained' then I'd be over the moon. Only get a quid a curry, so any extras are great!
