Those things in the shed….

June 16th, 2006

Not scary really!  Unless you have arachnophobia….

Before I bought it, my house was rented out a few times.  One of the previous occupants had obviously left a load of stuff in the shed (which is quite a good wooden one and quite sound, just needs a lick of timber treatment - very handy indeed!) in bin bags.  Closer inspection showed that this was a push chair, a cot, baby clothes and various other kid’s paraphernalia.  I put it all on freecycle and it’s now mostly gone - much more satisfactory than going to landfill, I’m glad the stuff I wanted to get rid of is doing some other people a good turn.

 Freecycle operates in many countries throughout the world.  To find your local group, start here - http://www.freecycle.org/.  My local group was quite small and slow when I joined but now there are usually 10 or 20 posts a day.  It’s a great scheme and I do recommend you participate.

See, not a horrible hairy spider in sight - actually i’m sure there’s plenty in the shed, I just didn’t notice them!
