IN came two shelving units, a set of saucepans that may/or may not be better than the ones I've been using for years. Plus some miscellaneous kitchen stuff and a selection of plastic storage boxes. Its always a mistake to visit this lady as she has a garage full of stuff to rehome. People give her things to give away. She gives usable things to local charities for animals, babies, Ukraine and so on. When I go there for something, she always tries to offload something else on me - like the utensils and the boxes. I find it so hard to say No. 
OUT went a load of cardboard box clutter.

She's like Aunty Wainwright in Last of the Summer Wine without financial bother.

I didn't watch Last of the Summer Wine so I'll take your word for it!

Yesterday there was at least 5 trays of assorted bread amongst the food bank leftovers I didn’t need any so I just took a bag of bagels and cheese scones.
