A trend spreading across the internet has people dressing up in cocktail dresses and as superheroes to take their household waste bins out for emptying

It began with a dare between friends in the Australian state of Queensland, and has spread as far as Texas, Britain and the Netherlands

Staying at home all day is rubbish, so people around the world are dressing up to take the bins out and sharing photos of their outfits online to cheer up others in lockdown.
