I bumped into Bertine from Unit 5 yesterday and she complained to me that she had received a letter from the council saying that they had noticed contamination in her recycling bin. Oh-ho! I've started to think about this and have formulated another theory.
So, there's a camera on the truck scanning all the stuff that is being collected. But there are five bins outside Number 40 Burghley Avenue; how does it tell them apart? Yes, I have a label saying number 2 on my bin and I presume the camera can pick that up. Is it just a coincidence that Bertine's bin was contaminated the same week as ours? Not likely, if you knew Bertine!
I'm also aware that Rhys from Unit 3 doesn't have a number on his bin so my preferred scenario is this: Rhys's bin was contaminated, the camera picked it up but couldn't identify which unit was delinquent, so the Council sent a letter to every unit to make sure the message was received by the culprit. The rest of us were just collateral damage.
I feel better now.
