Bin Men - stupid? or following process?

[rich p]

All this.......because a bin man can't put something back from where he found it.

Come on man - you've milked this one enough; so much so that your biggest admirers are even getting bored!

Give it a couple of days and start another fishing expedition

It's such a drag walking to the car. It is only 4 paces from my door but when I get to the Coop there is fortunately always a space near the door of the shop that's wide enough for my 4X4.

Oh dear, the shame of shopping there - what would the neighbours think...

It's Ok. The riff raff and not-rights shop at the big Tesco up the road, we pay more for the convenience of the Coop but I don't have to shop in the same space as the foul-mouthed, tattooed morons who I install phone lines for during the day.

Hmm

thought you would have been more of a Waitrose home delivery service man.

That satisfies the curtain twitchers.

I am. But there isn't a Waitrose around here. Plus if I have my shopping delivered, when would I get to go out in the Audi Q7 4.2 DTI Quattro S-Line ?

Stop Press: Just had my bin emptied and they managed to leave the bin where it isn't blocking the drive . I don't know how these things work but me raising these issues on here have obviously somehow been fed back to Salford City council and they've dealt with it. It just goes to show that the squeeky wheel gets the grease and it's all been worth it. Result !

oh dear.

well, quite. All the wankpanzers in the world won't make up for the absence of a Waitrose

 

[dellzeqq]

But what will all those refugees from the BBC eat? Mangelwurzels?

why do you think it is that the Beebies have been squeaking and hollering and whinging and griping and moaning and groaning about the move to Salford? It doesn't have a Waitrose. And the locals park in the middle of the road while they run around crying out 'the bins, the bins, the bins!'

See now that's why I'm so looking forward to you southern types migrating up north. In 44 years I've never heard anyone around here say "quite", followed 3 words later by the kind of language I always hear around these parts. Hopefully when you posh eccentric, Brompton riding, Guardian readers come up here you can bring a few nice Waitrose shops with you.

I think you'll find that some of us are heading your way in June - the clue is in the sig line - so you'd better smarten yourself up a bit........

 

[dellzeqq]

well, put it this way.........if he doesn't turn out for Manchester to Morecambe, some of us will think the worst!

Is he the Waitrose delivery man?
Fortunately I use Ocado.

I'm always prepared to mingle with southerners: I've prepared an appropriate speech impediment, corduroy blazer with leather elbow patches, half mast chinos and some brown brogues with leather sole, old Uni scarf, glasses and an old leather briefcase, fast shuffly walk slightly pigeon toe'd - a look that I define as; don't kick me a ball, I'll trip over it.

Seriously though, if I told my homeboys that I was going on an onion bike cycle ride with a bunch of Mr Beans from the big smoke they'd kick my head in. Thanks though
