Leo doesn’t care that I need a coffee before we go to the bank, he just wants to touch, chat to and put something in the bin. If it opens and closes, all the better, let’s do that too. It’s cute and funny until it is slightly annoying when we have to leave the bin behind and he gets upset. Thankfully saying a wistful ‘bye-bye bin’ and giving it a friendly pat, has started to help to ease the parting blow and we also now have a mini collection of bins for him to play with at home.
