I think my bin got a bit hyperactive with all the wind. I put the green waste bin out with only a bag of food scraps in it, this morning it was completely full of weeds. Obviously it was feeling a bit under-utilised and went out to do some weeding.

I do consider bins on the road already fair game (for the correct contents!) but it’s not uncommon for people to post requests for bin space in the local FB group

I was actually thinking when I put it out that it was a bit of a waste putting out a massive bin with just a small bag of chicken bones down the bottom. It's mostly surprising that someone was out filling a bin full of weeds in the middle of the night, expecially considering the weather!
