Britain's 'dullest man' selling merchandise dedicated to the Birmingham bin strikes

SWNS

The 73-year-old photographed piles of rubbish across the city to protest the ongoing industrial action, calling it a "global embarrassment."  The £12.99 calendar joins his bizarre merchandise range, including mugs and jigsaws.  Kevin, from Redditch, is known for celebrating the mundane with past calendars on roundabouts and car parks, but says this may be his most boring yet.  Would you like a punchier headline to go with it?
