gnvqsos Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Some would for a bit of compensation yes abloke down out street won £234.564 compensation because the blue bin obstructed his view of his car.He has packed up work now and simply stares out of his window all day wonering where his car has gone.

gnvqsos Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Partialy sighted people may do. As might someone carrying a large package,or someone walking backwards.A very small person might think it was a bus with no windows.Blue boxes are versatile things.The soviets even trained a blue bin to eavesdrop in public spaces,but they were filled with litter and gave a muffled signal.
