"This is a Rubbish Notice!!"

One of my neighbours is annoyed. We have three small out-buildings for rubbish however, only one of them currently has bins in them - due to the Management Company, not caring about the development anymore since they have sold all the flats on it. The closet one to me is just the other side of my car parking spot.

This one has no bins in it. If I want to put rubbish in a bin, I have to walk another 10m to the next hutch. I have thought about driving the car there but the only think stopping me is that I don't want my car smelling of rubbish. It already smells of pizza and bananas.

I go out and read the notice.

"The refuse collection service will only collect rubbish if it is IN A BIN. There are no bins in here. I have had to personally move one bag of rubbish from here into the bins. This is just a polite notice to other residents!!! Rubbish in here will not be picked up. Please do not put it in here. Use common sense. A fellow resident."

I scurry back in and think of ways in which I can distort the notice to make it funny for my readers. In the end I decide to write it out verbatim. I sit and watch from my window as someone reads the notice. They then open the door, put a box of rubbish in there, close the door, re-read the notice and then go back to their flat.

I'm currently taking bets on what the next in the series of public information posters will be - Don't throw mail down the drain, the postman will not collect it from there - is currently favourite.
