Freecycle and similar websites

It was a People food IN day today. I had planned to collect 6 tins of soup and a couple of bars of soap! The soap lady said there'd be a few other items with the soap. This morning she sent me a photo of a biggish cardboard box and said to be careful as it was quite heavy! There were 3 tins of peas, fresh grapes, apples, baby potatoes, ready to roll pastry, sachets of sauce mix and jelly and 4 packets of lard. Yuk!! I'll take them to the £5 food pantry next time I go.
I also collected a heated "shawl" thing for those cold winter nights when I can't afford the heating.

You can sit in your rocking chair, doing your knitting in your heated sawl, just like a little old granny.
