Not sure where to put this, but it's about recycling so here will do. My aunt has sold her house and now she must empty it. She moved into a smaller bungalow before Christmas and took some of her possessions with her. I asked her to let me know when the clear out would begin, a skip was ordered and a lot of stuff was destined to be chucked in there.
Today I went to help because I wanted to rescue things that could be passed on to someone else who needs it, via charity shops. I have come home (95 miles each way) with my car rammed full. I couldn't get it all in so I will go back tomorrow, because I hate to see useful stuff chucked away.
Next week I start passing it on, I have some ideas about who could make best use of it. I have just eaten my dinner, now I will unload the car. Goodness knows where I will put it all. Tomorrow we start on the garage and greenhouse.
It's very sad sorting through people's personal possessions, a lot of it belonged to her late husband. On the plus side, she has a lovely little cozy bungalow, just right for her.
