Jesus,what a way to go.

[joggerjayne]

Ya !

[DEN53]

The dustbin men around here check the bins, and if there is so much as a blade of grass they won't take it. The poor bloke obviously chose the wrong bin to fall asleep in. !

Horrible way to go.

[joggerjayne]

But why would they check all the bins?

They could hardly anticipate that somebody would climb into one and go to sleep.

[DEN53]

Hi JJ - surely the bin would have been unduly heavy with a body inside.

[noway2]

DEn I think the truck lifts it.

[DEN53]

Thats true noway, but the men have to wheel the bin to the truck.

[noway2]

DEN,I think it might be the large size WB that he slept in.Not a domestic one

[DEN53]

Oh - one of those commercial type ones.

[joggerjayne]

Yes.

Sleeping in an ordinary, household wheelie bin would be ...

... a bit cramped?

You'd have to be REALLY p!ssed to try to get into one of those !!!!!

[noway2]

I think so DEN,I cant see a domestic one being very cosy.

[DEN53]

Gotcha - its just that I thought those big ones were called Biffa Bins !

[joggerjayne]

I think (not sure, though)

that "Biffa Bins" is a term like "Hoover" ...

A brand name that has become synonymous with the generic item.

Cant have wheelie bin happy in there? JJ.

[joggerjayne]
