Alice the Camel May 2020 8:59pm, 27 May 2020 4,290 posts	0 Alice the Camel We put our recycling bin out last night at the end of the road, along with the other 5 houses on our lane. Heard the bin lorry early this morning but when I went to collect the bin at 10.30 ours had gone. One bin left but it's not ours. Waited all day in case somebody had accidentally taken ours and returned it but in the end had to take the spare one.
