It's Garbage Collection day so there's a string of bins lined up in front of our units. There are five units in our set , so ten bins this week. The kerb space between our driveway and the one next door isn't wide enough to accommodate the ten bins so Paul from Unit 1 leaves his the front of the next house. The -other eight bins fit snugly in the available space with about 15cm between each one and the next. Looks alright to me.
However, Bertine from Unit 5 isn't happy. She thinks they're too close together so she hung around one morning to chat with the garbage men. She reported back that they would like half a metre between each bin so that it would be easier for them to manipulate their grabber between them to pick them up. I suggested that the only way that this might happen is if a couple of us dragged our bins to another section of the street, in front of someone else's house. Would she like to volunteer?
Nothing's happened about that of course and the garbos seem to have retained the skill to fit the arms of the grabber between the bins.
