We live in a large old house converted into separate flats. It’s an expensive area and we pay a lot in monthly rent. The whole house is owned by the same landlord. Recently 2 of the 6 flats have had new tenants move in. Both flats are now occupied by 3 students a piece- very wealthy students with top of the range VW Golfs/Mini Coopers etc. Their parents helped them move in and were obviously very wealthy too, expensive cars/watches etc.
There is a shared front garden at the end of which the house’s bins are kept. Black, green for recycling and brown for compost. These students seem to place anything in whatever bin, black bin rubbish in recycling etc. And when plastic ‘container’ bins are full leave the bin bags outside in the garden, leaning against the bin. I’ve just come home to find two black bins torn apart by what I would think was a fox. Rubbish strewn all over the garden. One elderly tenant has tried to speak to them before about it but they have ignored her. WIBU to write a very cross note, explain (although they should know) the basics of the bin system and ask them to put rubber gloves on and clear up the strewn garden rubbish? So far they have come home and passed it with barely a second glance. If they don’t do it I’ll have to, and at 6 months pregnant it’s not really something I want to do!!
