Then I got two big allotments and now nothing gets thrown out ! Everything goes “down the allotment”. Ive become an accidental re-cycler! Coffee jars , milk containers etc find a use. Old pots and pans become poultry feeders, old duvets, blankets become plant fleeces in the poly tunnels, every gets taken their, “just in case I need it “ Cheers. It'll come in Cheers, D.

Same here. My grandkids have zero interest so I can either sell or give my stuff away if I'm not using it. Probable case when I go is Kev getting dropped a van load of hunting paraphernalia for the fishing comp auction Cheers, D. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aled 625 Posted 24 minutes ago Report Share Posted 24 minutes ago I've been given three lots of fishing gear some of which was destined for the skip, I've thankfully been able to give a pile of it away to youngsters in our angling club. Would a local club be able to use it? Cheers. Aled 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
