Our next door neighbour abuses our wheelie bin...
Discussion
...and it really, really is beginning to piss us off!!!
Now, this may be the pettiest rant ever, but I'm considering serious guerilla action against our next door neighbour. He doesn't come home every night so presume he has another half or works away occasionally... but whenever he does come home the ANNOYING SELFISH BASTARD drops his coffee cups from sipping on the move into OUR wheelie bin!
Let me set out the situation, as this is key to us losing the plot. Our drive is in front of our house, his driveway is alongside the left hand side of our house as you look at it from the front. Our wheelie bin is on our land to the left of our house adjacent to his driveway. Hence when he parks up, its usually within about a yard or two of our bin. His wheelie bin is about 10 yards away from where he parks his car, next to his front door. So the lazy arsehole can't be arsed to carry his coffee cup 10 measly
ing yards!!
I realise this is not one of life's biggest problems... and how we laughed and joked about it for about, oh, A YEAR ORING SO. But now its just getting ing ridiculous!
Whenever I lift the lid and spy a Costa coffee cup nestling innocently on top of our bags of waste the blood begins to boil... the heart begins to race and in my mind I'm conjuring ways of getting some payback.
IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR THE tt TO USE HIS OWN ING BIN???? WELL IS IT??
I repeat, this is not once every month, this is a couple of times a week ffs!
I ask you, the PH massive, to suggest ways of paying back this absolute tt of a man. Something needs to be done.

Many thanks for your sensible replies, I wish I'd thought of that solution, I really do. 
...we move it along the length of the path to the left of the house but he always stops his car immediately adjacent to the fecking thing. I can't be arsed to store it in the back garden as thats a pain in the arse as it would be an eyesore.
And there's nowhere else for it to go.
eta: ooh, some better replies!!

Yes, it probably is.Does it really matter?
He isn't throwing it on the ground, or chucking it on your lawn. Where is your neighbour spirit?
If it makes you feel better, go and put somthing in his bin. And savour that special moment when you have the lid raised and you realise just how petty you are being...
You could keep a diary over the next 12 months recording exactly how often his coffee cups have prevented you from getting all your rubbish into your own wheelie bin?
Please do come back and tell us as well, as I doubt any of us will sleep comfortably in our beds until we know the true extent of this neighbour's heinous crime!

Not knowing the layout of your drive, but can you move the bin the the right side of the house instead of the left ? Failing that put a note of the top telliing him to piss off and use his own bin?
Or.
Send him a invoice for the monthly rental for the use of your wheelie bin....
I dunno... I'm sure you'll work something out in the end,

I'm liking your style.What would you suggest? Cat shit?
Unfortunately, you could just chuck your old life in his bin, seeing as you are clearly in desperate need of a new one!
Is there still coffee which creates a puddle at the bottom of your bin/stains?
If it's just empty cups it is terribly petty, but it's your bin and presumably on your private land so your within your rights to ask him to stop.
Have you spoken to him about it? I bet the thought it might be aggravating you hasn't even gone through his mind.
