  • Bin thieves. Wtaf. I went from furious to bemused to pitying back to furious then pitying again, which doesn’t sit well with me because that’s why assholes get away with being assholes.

  • For balance - I slagged off people who number their bins in the ‘Ive never got’ thread and it’s touched a nerve.

    It turns out it’s a hugely emotive subject and the Venn diagram of LFGSS and mumsnet involves a significant overlap.

  • Didn’t see your slagging off but I can understand both sides now. It’s like having a bike stolen, some people create a rat bike/bin, others buy locks or special storage, and others plaster godawful bikeregister ID stickers all over.

  • That is defo multi level. I've used sharpies, rattle can, and even carved the number in. They still disappear frequently but on weeks they don't I can see which is mine.

    I'm guessing the mumsnet level is nestly aligned pretty stickers and a weekly jetwash concierge service to maintain "as new" bin status?

  • number their bins

    Number? What for? Don't they have different colours? It all goes in landfill anyway.

    Ah, you mean, like house number when there's a whole bunch of bins? We just have massive communal bins so this is not a problem. #smart
