Title: RUBBISH BIN MYSTERY Post by: tantrum on December 07, 2006, 08:16:01 PM I was at home in my room today for most of the day. Outside in a garden i have two green rubbish bins provided by the council. I keep them nxt to the wooden fence. Anyway, when i went out in the afternoon i smelled sth strange and saw a cloud of smoke coming from behind the house. When I got there one of my bins was gone, the only thing what was left is some melted plastic and burned papers.
My house has a big fence and a wall around it, so it is very unlikely that someone lit the fire, unless of course someone dropped some crap through the fence, but then i would surely smell the fire and see the smoke? I am not joking, the bin is gone, the wooden fence is untouched, wtf? Title: Re: RUBBISH BIN MYSTERY Post by: charmaine on December 07, 2006, 08:18:31 PM Now thats spooky :o

Title: Re: RUBBISH BIN MYSTERY Post by: Claw75 on December 07, 2006, 10:28:50 PM it does seem very odd that there isn't a mark on the fence.
