I saw several people (some well dressed) collecting food etc out of the bins by The Shires.
i donīt know i know the trash men come at 1am everynight to get the bins here in guaza
In Silencio there are regulars who sort anything that is of use and that they can sell, some have specially adapted bikes so they can carry the larger items.

No it was not Young Golfer...he is on a diet.
Wile having a late lunch in The Shires LC I saw 3 or 4 people walking past and getting what looked like food out of the bins.
It did cross my mind that there efforts were being recycled in restaurants? I don't think so...would they?
One guy looked realy well dressed. Shirt, trousers, nice clothes.

Any relation to Bin Laden
i was sitting outside some shops the other day (in walsall) and there was what looked like romanian women looking through some bins and they had got the kids with em!! they were chased away by who i thought was the manager, but as soon as they had gone he started to go through them lol??? i watched a programe the other night about a group of people who survive purely on thrown out out of date food, and the presenter was eating it as well, because the sell by dates are there only as a guide line and the food is safe to eat for much longer than the date specified

When you next out shopping then Marbs.
When we are in Los Cristianos we reguarly see the same man going though the Basura's daily at Castle Harbour, The Heights and Dinastia, he appears to take his "goods" back into Castle Harbour so we think he may stay there.
When you next out shopping then Marbs.ha ha why kev do you want me to pick you up a nice sarny from prett a manger's bin lol
My brother as been staying in the Reveron in Los Cris centre. He saw a well dressed male take an old box of bananas out of the bins, put them on the back of his bike.
Which establisment are these bananas going?
If my spelling is wrong my apologies, ive had a few!
I must admit to delving into basuras myself ( thinking of changing my name to bin-lady)- Ever since i started working with live arico dog rescue I always keep an eye for out for useable items for our charity shops, & so far i,ve managed to find a large dining table, ( which i had to sit on with my dog, whilst i rang a neighbour to come help me carry it !!) three clothes rails, a shoe stand, bags of books,& a book case on wheels.... lol
By same token if we have excess bags of clothes we cant sell i place them on top near the bins in case any locals want to sort thru them !! ( dont all rush down at once ) ....:eyebrows::crazy:

if anybody was rifling through your bin in uk it could be the bin police or fraudsters looking for any personal info, if they seem only to be talking food or furniture there is a group who live solely on the rejects of other people some are wealthy individuals and it is a game/hobby for them and i suppose holiday's are no exception
