A MAN has postponed putting his rubbish out once again by ramming down the contents of his kitchen bin and then lying about it.

Exerting the full force of his body weight, Bill McKay managed to free up a full three-eighths of an inch of extra space, creating just enough room for an empty bacon packet and the inedible heel from a seeded batch loaf.

The 90 seconds of grunting effort has saved him from having to walk all the way to the wheelie bin by the shed and then replace the bag in the kitchen.

Clapping his hands in a satisfied manner, McKay said: “Time well spent.”

When asked by his wife if he had emptied the bin like she asked, McKay immediately said ‘yes’, before going back to watching the new Game of Thrones trailer.
