You've got some really useful stuff there, except perhaps for the smart watch, I like the silicone covers, I've got square mat like things that cover in the micro instead of clingfilm, really useful.

The watch is interesting because its shows altitude and confirms that the 100m contour line (shown on maps) does run through the house. Don't suppose I'll need to check that again. Big Grin

Yesterday's IN was a small metal stand with 4 little wire shopping baskets in it - probably supposed to be for storing vegetables. I think it would make a good rack for 4 lots of microgreens or similar.
Today's IN is a new orange waterproof coat - supposed to be for cycling but I'll be wearing it in the garden. There'll be no hiding wearing that!!
OUT went about 20 books to the Morries charity book stand.

IN today came 6 loaves of sliced bread, 6 sweet peppers, 2 bags of brussels sprouts and 3 boxes of Pesto and Pinenut pasta salad.
Also IN - 2 sets of trays for sprouting seeds - for winter salads.
OUT went 2 loaves and a bag of sprouts to my brother who tells me that, only one dog in 3 likes sprouts. All 3 of mine do.

I'd have been happy to help. To be honest, I really should delve into the back of my cupboards and see what's lurking there. Big Grin

Some useful INs today that will help me be more self sufficient - maybe!
A garden trug for collecting all my beans Big Grin
A pair of hair thinning scissors for the dogs - though I did test them on my hair Big Grin
A Microfibre floor mop (don't laugh)
A Push along lawnmower - looks new. Hoping to be able to use it to cut the paths without worrying about what the lead is wrapped around.

OUT went the 2 packs of sweet peppers I was given last week, as I'm sure I won't use them and a handful of magazines.

IN today - a heated Plastic Bag Sealer and some microwave steam bags
...............& 4 Tesco Genoa fruit cakes. The girl I had them from, collected 30 cakes from Tesco at the weekend.

OUT went a plastic dog bed. It had holes in the bottom (deliberate ones) so I couldn't use it to make a mini-pond. I already have 2 of these "ponds" in the garden. Big Grin
