In the Daily Mail web pages today is a photo showing officers going through MB's rubbish and there is a red box for recycling, overflowing with what looks like beer cans. Our recycling gets collected every fortnight and we never manage, even in two weeks, to have ours even half full. Looks like an awful lot of drinking for just one guy. Could this account for erratic driving too?
Not sure if those are all beer cans. Though you can see a few wine bottles in the pale blue bin.
But just for perspective: my own recycling looks like that right now and I don't drink much, nor have I had a party. When recycling is picked up every 2 weeks as it is for me, I often miss the truck because i never remember which week is recycling. If it were every week I'd remember to set it out, but by skipping weeks it always slips my mind. I therefore have >2 months of alcohol containers - about 3 wine bottles, one of which was used in a recipe, and would probably look like an alkie to my neighbors as well. I suppose lazy people who aren't regular about clearing out their rubbish would also have a build up.
