too true Scythe! i found one guy one morning sleeping in a wheely bin! they all slept in cars, some had cheap almost scrap caravans(2 berth size -nothing big), used to see a female in the car park living in an old ambulance.

Wheely bin?!?!?! That's crazy!!!
not a household one, one of the red ones behind the local mini-market, when we first saw him his legs were hanging out-wife thought he was dead!!Big Grin

That's more understandable. Still crazy, but more understandable than a black plastic wheely. I've seen those big ones converted with hinges on them. They basically pick a bin, steal it, then move it to somewhere it won't be collected from. Then hey presto....a house.

Did that as a kid, we snaffled a huge wheeled dumpster type bin from the back of the supermarket and wheeled it to the old cow field whre we made it into a den, it was still there 10 years later.
