    I think my DD would like one of those to keep sweeties in for her shop, I'll send the missus off in search at her school.

    It would be no good for me though, I need them split into weeks, so that I don't forget what I should be doing. I'm so easily distracted down the plot.
    I'm only here cos I got on the wrong bus.

      Looks like floppy disc boxes are gonna make a comeback. As I work in a hospital, Sarz could be on the right track.

          Interesting seeing this saying here. I picked up some old broken paving stones for an allotment path today, and the owner came out with exactly the same words, then thanked me for saving him a job in getting rid of them at the dump.

          Anyone else here a member of Freecycle, (or Freegle, as a lot of the groups are now called)? I 'm a member of 3 groups local to me and they've been great in helping me get my garden together....paving slabs and railway sleepers for raised beds, gravel for paths and loads and loads of plants, seeds, pots, etc.

          Plus we love recycling in general, we've built a wardrobe out of a piano we found abandonded in a car park (!), a corner cupboard out of an old wooden bed headboard, lights out of old copper kettles....great fun :-))

            Right, that's decided then. The stationery catalogue is coming out tomorrow, there's got to be something like that in it. LIKE IT ALOT.

                That's given me an idea, I'm sure we've got something like this at work that's marked for the skip.
