Bin Boggled

The kitchen bin has broken. (actually it broke a long time ago, it is just that the first time it broke it was brand new, and we didn't have the heart to replace it). However, now it is properly, as in more than one piece, broken. This poses two problems.

1. We now have to obtain a new bin. Particularly difficult as properly working bins seem very hard to get hold of these days. The ones in ASDA were pre-broken, and I've yet to find a design which I think is solid enough for my lot.
2. How do you throw away the old dusbin?

Re 2:

Fold it inside out.

Hmmm. If you fold a dustbin inside out it means that the whole of the universe is now inside the dustbin and therefore liable to be thrown away. This would probably cause a rift in the space-time continumum.

In fact I think I remember this being used as a plot device in a Star Trek episode once, either that or a Tachyon Beam.
