I'm gonna be sticking the house number stickers I got off eBay on the bins.

Some scrote stole my black bin and I had to get a new one after grovelling to Leeds City Council, but no more, I've got stickers!!

I was sure the Mrs said we're going to Ossetia this weekend, I got all excited but turns out she actually said Ossett, to get her hair done. So it's probably just a cheeky pint in the Maypole and avoiding eye-contact with the locals for me.

that's almost as sad as me, My Kids bought me some bin numbers as stocking fillers.
 
Your house has a number? AYSYCOTBAC?


Our bins have the house name (as initials) painted on them.

It has a number and a name. Really odd, long ago before my time the property's huge detached garage across the (private!) road was turned into a house and sold off so there are now two houses with the same number, each with a name to distinguish them apart.

My new stickers have the number and the name!

We have a brown bin for garden waste, green for recycling and black for the rest, except, which is really annoying, nowhere for glass, we have to take it to the tip. Ourselves!

I've actually had a note stuck on my bin when I followed the neighbours advice just to stick the bottles in anyway and they gave me a yellow card, and I also got one for not placing the bin on bin day in the designated collection area. None of us have any idea what or where the designated collection area is. Traditionally, since we live at the top of a cul-de-sac which is at the top of a hill, the lower-downers drag their bins up the hill roughly to my house cos the hill is too sleep for the bin truck and the (private!) road too narrow.

The ettiquete of bin day in Leeds, I should(n't) write a book....
