Bloody bins

You would think that using a recycling bin would be relatively hazard free? Not in the Blog house.

Recently I went to put out the "blue bin" - earmarked for paper, cardboard, plastic and other recyclable waste. All in accord with the Borders Council Thought Police instructions. One of which is that the bin lid must be flat.

I notice our lid was propped up by one bag too many shoved in to the blue bin. "Easy" I thought, "Simply shove the bag in further".

I did.

It burst.

The (non-recyclable) ashes from our fire were in the bag ...but not for much longer.

I celebrated Ash-Wednesday in style.
