    How rude! I had a dismantled fence panel that was broken and the man with a wood burning stove was very happy to come and pick it up! I don't have a car do dispose of it myself at the tip. And local council bulky waste collection is £20 for 5 items.

    And I also gave away a dismantled garden shed that needed a few small repairs.

    I had no intention of being rude, sorry. I should have thought the preservatives involved would make them unsuitable for fuel, but maybe not then!

    As for the other things, maybe I should've posted the full ads for effect.

    'i want {item} must be in fair condition call xxx-xxxx' If any of them had involved any form of please or thank you I'd've just smiled and moved on. :o

    It is not a joke they say.
    I have several very large bin bags of pencil sharpener shavings which I have
    been collecting for over 15 years. They come in a variety of shapes, sizes and
    lengths. These may be of use to amateur gardeners as an effective soil mulch and
    weed suppressant, home crafters as a useful cushion-filler or pet owners as an
    environmentally friendly alternative to cat litter or scattered as bedding for
    hamsters. These versatile shavings could also be used as emergency confetti,
    pressed into briquettes for a wholesome breakfast cereal, sprinkled as a
    dandruff-simulator in training salons, individually tippexed and used as fake
    snow, sewn together to make a buoyant life jacket, used to help absorb vomit
    incidents, spread across apple slices for dehydrating, pressed between heavy
    books to form chipboard which can then be used to make kitchen and bedroom
    cabinets, added to paint to make a wood-chip effect or boiled up with onions to
    form a wholesome and satisfying soup.

    Hope they're useful for someone!

    I assure you this is not a joke!
