^^^ The kneeler chair has been collected.
Today, I picked up a herb mincer and a cheese grater - both the sort where you put the produce in a little hopper and turn a handle...........then, onto the next pick up, a bit further up the road. Long story, but I'll try to be brief.
A friend wants to build a bar in his garden - even though he's teetotal. I'd offered to collect some glasses from the freebie site for him. I've never seen so many glasses - they covered the central island work surface. Glasses of all shapes and sizes, many branded ones or commemorating events. I didn't know where to start! The deciding factor was - I'd take all the branded ones and leave the plain ones for someone else.
Another freebie collector arrived for some casserole dishes and the owner started opening cupboard doors and pulling out drawers and saying "Do you want this? How about this?".
I was very restrained, all I took were 2 big bowls that will make great dog dishes and a Funky Veg kit sow by 06/21. They're a real rip-off - 5 tiny packets of seeds, 5 seed labels, 5 peat free pots and 5 Jiffy pellets. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Funky-Veg-Plant...B0060Y60YU. All in a box about 6 times bigger than necessary.
Meanwhile, I've been told there's an Open House on Saturday to clear everything that's left - as the house has been sold and has to be cleared. Soooooooootempting!!
