Rubbish Irony

Chichester District Council placed a £10,000 spy camera in a rubbish bag to catch illicit fly tippers.

It got picked up by the dustmen and chucked.

Life is good.

  1. I had to research "fly-tipping". Darn you UKs for coming up with yet another witticism to deal with something unpleasant!
    Maybe they can get Kim and Aggie to investigate this dangerous situation with "How Clean is Your Roadside?"

    Or maybe drop the trash tax and the problem will go away

  2. The rock band 'Garbage' was on tour.
    They unloaded the crates carrying their instruments and paraphernalia on the loading dock of the arena/theatre/whatever where they were to perform.

    Despite the crates being clearly marked with the band's name they disappeared!
