    any charity will take them, I think, but you would probably have to drop them off.

    Not what I thought when I saw the word "adult" in there thought you had no chance!
    I started with nothing and I am proud to say I still have most of it left.

    I thought the opposite. I was just thinking of all those 'lonely' old gets out there, willing to pay £75 for a used ************
    Ask me no questions, and I'll tell you no lies
  • your local social services dept may take them off your hands to give to those in the emergency hostels who turn up with nothing but the clothes on their backs.
  • Nowhere near your PDSA shop I'm afraid.

    Also, apologies about using the term "adult", I just couldn't think of the best way of describing what I wanted to give to charity. :o

    I just wish people wouldn't buy cheap smellies like Lynx ect. Neither my OH or I skin can tolerate them.

    do you have any idea how much of a pratt you sound??

    I don't give a s**t about how I sound. I just want these gifts to go to a good charity.

    Also, there is some humour in my post.

    Just take a walk through your local town centre and hand them out to all the smelly people.

    Together we can make a difference.

    I think you might be onto something there :D Would they be happy with a pen set and an address book too?
