Postman and rubber bands.

Recommended Posts

Ive noticed that our postman always leaves a trail of red rubber bands behind him as he does his rounds,

should this be classed as littering ,why dont they just put them in their pocket and take them with them.

Someone where I used to work collected them and created an elastic band ball which had it's own gravity so he's not alone!

Ive just moved away from S10 but our postman was the exactly the same every night when we walked the dog we picked up half a dozen or so red rubber bands on our walk around the block.

 

As someone else said I too have a red rubber band ball (somewhere in my removal boxes).

Ive noticed it too, I started to make a ball with them, the more times he comes the bigger it gets. Saves us having to get them in at my work :hihi:

One problem is if you drop a rubber band you dont hear it fall so you dont always know its been dropped.

 

The idea of getting the red bands so that they could be seen and the post(wo)man would pick them up , unfortunatley all that as happened is that the number of complaints about dropped bands as gone up
