Over on the 700 thread we have a tradition of posting photos when we've reached a milestone. Which is (obviously) usually when we've reached 700 miles, but not necessarily :) Bin-t has her own tradition of posting milestone photos featuring a bin. Don't ask me why, any reason is lost in fetch history somewhere...People seem to have started copying her bin photo concept. What can I say, the woman is a role model in so many ways.

Soooo (sorry Sharkie), we were chatting last night and jacs had been at the turps and she came up with the idea of a bin photo competition for August. Star suggested Bin There as a title, and this turned into Bin There Run That. Snappy, eh?

So here are the rules. Take a photo of a bin encountered on a run during August (if you want to sneak in bins cycled past we'll turn a blind eye). All bins qualify. Get arty. Maybe no photos of you licking bins (I know, I shouldn't even have to say that...) We were hoping Lord Fetch would judge the best entry, but if he's busy then if someone could volunteer that would be lovely.

Ok, get busy with bins!

Do all bins qualify? As in wheelie bins left out the day after the bin lorry has been round, solely for the purpose of blocking a runner's path, dog bins, recycling bins.. the list is endless (well it's got three on it anyway) maybe there should be category prizes and then a grand final of the category winners

All bins qualify, why don't we see what happens on the sub-category front? :)

That poo bin one is a masterpiece. However the poo bins round my way are certainly not to be sniffed at either :-o... so watch this space
