I'm going to guesstimate another 200 items taken by my sister to the local dump this afternoon, mainly old gardening items - she had a carful of black bags."Save £12k in 2019" #120 - £100,699.57/£100,0000

You would never think there are two people in this house, more like twenty from all the washing we have.:mad: Mind, the washing isn't the worst bit....the getting of it dry is such a pain. Clothes would be disposable or self cleaning me thinks.:rotfl:
I feel exactly the same and there are only two adults and one nine year old, lol and the weather has turned grim again!!!!Why oh why. Do I pick up every free supermarket magazine :eek: it must cost so much to have these printed. I NEVER completely read them, just seem to pile them up for a rainy day. Well we've had loads of rainy days and I've not picked any of them up! Time to bin them :j
Me too and I think I'll pull a pile out to flick through tonight as recycling collection is tomorrow morning.
Have had a breakthrough today and remembered to take my own bags for the supermarket shopping :T, although I did end up with a couple of carriers tooas had a young boy helping to pack the bags as he was fundraising for his Football team (not my son, lol). Even remembered to put th bags back in car boot for next time :T
Back later with last update for September. Hope you've all had good weekends :AGoodreads 2025 Challenge :16/75
