BARNSLEY - BIN PARTIES ARE OVER

Remember how kids in Yorkshire were setting fire to wheelie bins and getting high off the toxic plastic fumes? Well, this insane "craze" is thankfully now in remission, according to new BBC findings. The number of reported bin sniffing parties has gone down from over 100 to just three in the last three months. Barnsley police are congratulating themselves for having the genius idea to chain the bins up in order to stop fiends from igniting them. Good call guys! Where would we be without you?
