    Thankfully the councils round here have avoided the descent into wheelie-bin fascism that you read about in the papers.

    And as with building waste - first they have to catch you...

    Thanks for the help with the ad Pania - I am good at the mo (I am thinking there must be something wrong because I am so full of beans:eek: ).

    Lula - get yourself onto freecycle and offer your free sticks - loads of people in the Brum one seem to ask for sticks and stuff for bonfires.

    I too had noticed that the spammers are out in force:rolleyes:

    Thanks for stick tips guys - I dont actually mind a trip to the dump as I've made friends with the guys working there & last time came home with a set of brand spanking new jump leads :D & no I havent a clue what to do with them, something about red & black :confused: but they might come in useful one day ... & a girl likes to have a decent set of tools / equipment ;)

    Where equipment take batteries, and tools don't..?
