[AA grumpy]

for one night only sees the temporary return of the AA grumpy column

why ? because its worthy of grumpys caustic wit

The warden is being formally investigated for his "bizarre behaviour" when he put the sticky ticket envelope on the bin left on double yellow lines.

Salesman Mike Jones was amazed when he spotted the warden attach the yellow ticket on the large Biffa waste bin in a shopping street.

He said: "It was bizarre - I realised had just watched a warden give a ticket to a wheelie bin for bad parking."

Mike, 54, was in Carmarthen, West Wales, when he spotted the warden talking to other motorists about the wheelie bin from a town centre shop blocking the road.

He said: "It appeared the warden slapped the plastic ticket envelope on the bin in a moment of hi-jinx after a member of public pointed out it was parked on double yellow lines.

Should the bin have been given a ticket for 'parking' in the wrong place?

"I saw him doing it and pulled in and took the pictures What's the point of putting it on the bin?

The traffic warden faced a booking of his own - when his bosses "launched a formal investigation into the conduct of this officer".

Carmarthenshire Council traffic and safety manager John McEvoy said: "The officer was patrolling the area when a member of the public pointed out that the wheelie bin was an obstruction, and asked if he was going to book it The officer, in a light-hearted moment, wrapped a Penalty Charge Notice envelope around the bin handle.

"There was no ticket issued, it is not possible to book a wheelie bin or anything that is not motorised."

A spokesman for waste collection company Biffa said "It's a relief to learn that the bin in question isn't in trouble with the council."
