    Today I logged onto my local freecycle and someone is asking for a campervan and a dog cage for a car. Big asks, but what got me is it sounds like they're planning to run away with their dog! I wonder if their OH knows! :D

    It put some daily contact lenses on freecycle not really expecting a reply and I got a student who was in need of some and they were the right prescription. I was so glad they were useful to someone as they cost a foftune.
