RE: Freecycle and similar websites - Veggie - 27-11-2023
I've been to the £5 x 2 Pantry tonight. Two bags of KFC chicken, Quorn sausage rolls and a meat one. Potatoes, carrots, onions, portobello mushrooms, huge tomatoes, avocadoes, grapes, blueberries, rice pudding, custard, pasta, crisps, coke, bread, apple pies, flapjacks.
Also IN today - 2 deodorants.
I've been arranging some OUTs for collection tomorrow.

In today a pheasant from the shoot.
Out but not free (shouldn’t really be on here ) our old zeta tractor and our log splitter ( that runs by the tractors prop shaft ).
RE: Freecycle and similar websites - Veggie - 28-11-2023
IN came a small bag of clothes that may or may not fit or even be my "type". I instantly put back in the bag dresses, skirts, anything sleeveless or frilly, see-through, low necked, flowery, light coloured, especially white, which leaves a couple of pairs of jeans and some sweaters. Haven't tried them on yet.
OUT went a little organiser shelf thingy with 16 plastic boxes on it, I thought I could sort seeds into it but the boxes are too small; and the Christmassy stuff that arrived recently with some candles.

OUT today went a very old Anglepoise lamp - it had 2 strand wire that put me off even trying it!. There's another one in the garage which has been rewired. It used to be angled into all sorts of odd corners on cars and motorbikes but it hasn't been use for at least 25 years! Maybe I'll let that one go soon too.

Maybe I'll let that one go soon too.I'm sure I watched a program where those old Anglepoise lamps (especially certain makers names?) were worth quite a bit of money once restored with new wiring?

Yes, Vinny, I did a quick gogggle and was amazed at how much they sell for. I'm given so much stuff for FREE that its only right that I give things away too.
RE: Freecycle and similar websites - Veggie - 30-11-2023
OUT today went some silicone moulds for making chocolates or wax melts. Found them amongst some of the candle making stuff I've been acquiring. Needed them to go quickly as some of the moulds were Father Christmas & Christmas trees. Not much call for those in summer!
Also OUT, the clothes that I collected recently - only kept 2 pairs of jeans.

Went to a Pop-up Pantry this afternoon for 2 x £5 boxes of food. including pork chops, chicken goujons, braised steak, cooked ham, butternut squash meal, fish pie, vegan roast, mushrooms, kale, cauliflower, sweetcorn, tomatoes, carrots, avocado, blackberries, figs, grapes, salad leaves, panini and an enormous white chocolate and raspberry cake (£16). Well pleased with that lot.

A Question for the Panel
On the local Recycle Group the question was asked:-
"How does one dispose of outdated frozen food?"
I'm interested to hear how the Panel's answers reflect those of the Recycle Group.
