Crap

So im sat here listening to stereo snoring . Useful son is here for the weekend and im not sure who snores the loudest him or his dad . So for a change i got to watch the rather misty sunrise as the rain has finally stopped , day of garden chores it would seem, as the green lushness can get a bit out of hand. So yesterday i set out on a mission to get rid of tons of stuff dumped here by daughter in the vain hope i would car boot it all , So i got sarcastic son to load the car and i was in Morrisons having breakfast by 8.30 with other half , trying to figure how to get the mounds to a charity shop . It may not sound hard but i have to find one that will actually take stock , has vehicle access where i can park right outside the shop and doesnt want to go through everything to pick and choose . It was all good clothing a lot of it tagged or never worn . But there was a vast amount of it . I had managed to get rid of 8 bags of books the previous week at another shop . So other half pointed out theres now a Cat Protection shop inside Morrisons , so as he ate his greasy breakfast i toddled across and asked the manager if she wanted a lot of laundry bags of clothes , she said they arent allowed to take books or DVDs at the moment , she has no idea why .  So i loaded a trolley up with difficulty and struggled  into the store , but i made it , so thats another load gone .  Thought id get my fresh shopping as that was the main reason for even going into town only to find that due to a power fault they couldnt open any of the chillers ..ho hum  i get my online shop but getting fresh stuff or chiller items is no good because the dates are always the next day . So I had to go somewhere else that was quiet ended up at M&S yet again .  Then i was changing the bed in the spare room and decided to rake through the cupboards and it turned out to be a bit of a nightmare , so that was another 8 bags into the back of the car , along with an even bigger pile for the bin . It will take weeks to get rid of the bin rubbish , still cant use the skip without an appointment and only one type of waste at a time , plus they are not allowed to help you and you must go alone .  Hope it doesnt rain and trap me in the house again this week its amazing what i achieve when im bored

  1. That’s a lot of stuff left behind for you to “ manage”. Maybe if you weren’t so capable, your load would be lighter?

  2. WOW! You did get a lot done! Yes, a bit of a cheek leaving so much for you to deal with - but not an uncommon problem I'm afraid. Good for you just getting it done!

  4. clothes with labels on??? that's a job for EBay; I travelled to the local refuse centre last week with old chair seats, clothing and 5 bags of household rubbish as we missed the household refuse collecton - felt great dumping it all. Cant see why you have so many restrictions when we don't in sunny Surrey.

  6. I could not believe it when my daughter said that you have to make an appointment to dump rubbish at the tip now. No wonder people leave stuff just anywhere, I give up.

    1. i gather there are no plans to stop this performance once Covid restrictions are done . They can run the site with just a couple of people saving loads of money

  7. I know it is so hard at the moment. Charity shops are picking and choosing and I seem to have permanent boxes of items I'm trying to get rid of. No wonder people are fly tipping! I have worked so hard clearing I can't work out why our house isn't empty.

    1. i know that feeling . Considering how much ive got rid of this last couple of months , i should be seeing an improvement but it still resembles an episode of hoarders

  8. It's like a different world up there. Our chazzas are desperate for donations, we're actively hunting for stuff to take each week just to help them out and the tip has been functioning as normal since last May and open seven days a week. The only difference is that there's a live webcam thingy on Facebook so you can see how busy it is before you leave!
