Seemingly the Singing Binman is something of a Cambridge celebrity having appeared on Britain's Got Talent' a few years ago. I'd certainly not seen anything like this before but it appears the BGT judges were less than impressed, with Amanda Holden declaring it "Rubbish"!
Back in June I took part in the annual Photo24 challenge along with about 200 other photographers. Having taken part in the event in London for about seven years for the first time the event was held in Cambridge.

From the Ely Standard, " Cambridge's famous "singing bin man" made a bid for £250,000 and a spot on the Royal Variety Performance by auditioning for Britain's Got Talent.
Charlie Cavey, 43, usually busks from his bin on King's Parade, next to King's College in Cambridge city centre.
But the unusual busker starred in the prime-time ITV programme last night (Saturday, April 23), and treated a studio audience and viewers at home to his rendition of Monty Python's "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life".
Charlie, who is 5ft 9, and his litter bin were wheeled on stage by two crew members. Amanda Holden asked the guitarist: "What are you hoping that comes from this?"
"A bigger bin," fellow judge Simon Cowell quipped.
Charlie said that he wanted to tour the world, before David Walliams replied: "You'll need a wheelie bin for that."
Charlie was given less than two minutes on air. Despite his audience singing along with the Monty Python favourite, all four BGT judges buzzed Charlie off."
