Was on the way home and a stopped by a local supermarket where there are a load of containers for recycling, it was about 1am, I was approaching with a my bagpack of empty cans, when a guy in a left hand drive car with a Poland registration gets out of his car drops 2 knotted plastic bags full of odd named beer cans in front of the container and gets in his car and drives off. I see this fairly frequently at recycling areas and drives me mad, and it's more often than not our Eastern European counterparts that do it, I seem to be there at the right time just as the f**ker is jumping in his car, if you're going to make the journey down with the beer cans, put the cans into the bin instead of dumping them there in front of it, they are their responsibility, not for someone else to pick up after you, the bins weren't even full. Takes an Irishman to do a task properly so I put the cans in rather than attract vermin, the bag also contained some empty odd brand cigarette boxes and ashes and fag butts, was fairly rank and I tossed them into another bin nearby. Probably coming across as a bit of a racist but I'm seeing it the whole time, what makes people so special where they don't have to put their own rubbish in the bin and the next best thing is dumping it in front of it? Do they believe in the rubbish fairy that picks up your dirt as soon as you half arse your drop off? Anyone else see the same stuff out there? Hate when people half arse simple tasks.

Glass not included as there's a bottle bank a two minute walk away. Bins are full of all manner of crap. Bottles everywhere. Recyclable plastic in the normal waste bins. Cans in the normal waste bins. Dirty nappies in the recycling bins. People couldn't give a f**k, just throw it wherever. Irish people, by and arge, doing it.

An Ryanair air hostess told me Irish are dirtiest on the planes. She said you ask people for their rubbish at the end of the flight and its not uncommon for the Irish to throw their rubbish on the floor in front of you.

Plenty of Irish people clean up after themselves and recycle and I am sure there are one or two bad Germans in the whole country too. I really don't understand this self hating Irish thing of everything in Germany is heaven and everything in Ireland is just ****. Oh yes one Ryanair hostess clearly proves beyond all doubt we are complete dirty pigs.
