When friendship groups set up little cliques and decide to have get-togethers (yes, I was one of the group not invited

It's a perfect plan until one of them gets drunk and puts a photo on Facebook
Shouldn't really annoy me (I wouldn't have gone anyway), but it's the whole operating behind people's backs that bothers me. They can all go f
k themselves now, absolutely dead to me.
I understand this. I don't have many friends to be honest, but even when people I know have get togethers (who aren't close friends but still close contacts), I do sometimes feel a little left out if I didn't even know about it. )It's a perfect plan until one of them gets drunk and puts a photo on Facebook

Range Rover drivers, driving as close as they can. I know they’re really important but wish they’d just fk off.
What is it with these wk off. kers. I’ve honestly not seen one of these of late being driven with consideration for anyone other than themselves. They expect the traffic to part like the Red Sea so they can continue ploughing forward at breakneck speed. The neighbours all putting their wheelie bins out on the street at 5pm the day before collection.
They’re not collected until around 10:30am so there’s plenty of time in the morning. I stick mine on the street before I leave for work.
I just don’t understand why most people feel the need to have them out by 5pm the day before.
It’s not even an irrational annoyance either, as plenty of them will happily put them out on a stormy evening and all the rubbish ends up everywhere.

I do this. I could put them out at 23.00 when I leave for work but I don't think the neighbours would appreciate the rumbling, squeaking wheels at that time. The bin men have been and gone long before I get home. They’re not collected until around 10:30am so there’s plenty of time in the morning. I stick mine on the street before I leave for work.

I do bring them straight in the next morning, if that helps alleviate some pain?

Ahem, not everyone gets up at single figure o'clock. I would beg to differ with the "plenty of time in the morning"! 
Nothing wrong with putting the rubbish out the previous evening.

And the time of day the bins are collected can vary, so again, that's why everyone puts them out the night before, and not the next morning. No is is going to get up before 7AM just to stick their bins out, are they ?

When I lived in India, that's exactly what the "office" sounded like when you turned on the lights first thing in the morning. That is, if the lights actually turned on and the breakers didn't freak out and give you a free smokeshow.

I have neighbours next door and opposite who simply leave their bins (3 wheelies) on the pavement all the time, because they can't be bothered, or are too scatty, to work out when the various collection days are. These are detached houses with good driveways and side access to back gardens. These people annoy me beyond reason. The next door guy runs a "landscaping" business too, and leaves his cement mixer and varying amounts of detritus from customers' projects leaning against my 2 foot wall and in full view of my dining room permanently, because "the pikies will take it all", apparently. The pikies never take it of course, he just doesn't want to pay for it to be disposed of commercially, and he can't take it to the council tip in his signwritten van.They’re not collected until around 10:30am so there’s plenty of time in the morning.

This doesn't belong in this thread as it is highly reasonable to find this annoying. Personally I'd be having a word with him first to give him the chance to rectify it as assuming he's not a complete moron he already understands it's not on and maybe just needs a nudge. After that I'd be on to the council about storing commercial waste on residential land.
