Pet Peeve

Well, I'm not feeling so Christmassy and filled with good will toward all men today.

Our friends who keep their horse here have the really annoying habit of cramming our recycling bin with bushels of refuse from the barn, leaving absolutely no space for us!  This irritating behaviour is compounded by the fact that the recycling is only picked up once every two weeks, and this is not the week we can expect removal.  That means that our bin will sit where it is, stuffed to the gills, for another entire week, and meanwhile I suppose we will just have to pile up our recycling somewhere until the bin is emptied.  I do wish they could use their own bins for their rubbish!

Update:  I've just taped a note (with suitably festive and patriotic duct tape) to the bin's lid ... perhaps it will help.
