It's bin day and we're waiting for the pick up. Elderly neighbour was out and on his way back home reversed into his bins, knocking them over and spilling a bit of crap on the nature strip and footpath.
Did he notice? Absolutely not.
Did he go out and pick it up? No chance.
Did I do the right thing, rush out and tidy up as the rubbish truck was at the top of our street? Yes, but was grumbling the entire time.
My biggest issue was that it took the rubbish truck a few minutes to do it's round. Not long enough for me to back inside, but just too long to stand outside waiting andlooking like an impatient resident that is totally judging the truck driver's performance.
