It has all gone a bit wonky, hasn't it? Councils using new laws, designed to catch beardies, to prove that Mrs. Miggins (aged 87, living on £100 per week, house worth £128,750) is putting her rubbish out the night before collection AND (the old slag) overfilling her wheelie, so that the lid is 0.000002mm ajar.

Reminds me of the time I got done for putting out my waste paper a few days early. Got reported by an officious Swiss couple to the local plod.
Went down the cop shop, and agreed to put the offending items in the back of my car for one night, and then going down the next day to restack the waste paper by the side of the road, this being the legal day. Oh, and I'd thoughtfully stacked it on the wrong side of the road where there was plenty of room, instead of my side of the road where it would partially block the road, as there's no pavement, so I had to put that right as well.
While I was helping plod with their enquiries, a jewellers was burgled. Police were unable to apprehend the criminal, as they were far too busy dealing with a major littering offense.Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!Comment
