...one mans rubbish is another mans treasure.

I've just been taking a few bits to the skip and found these glistening in the sun on the top of the cardboard skip






Made my rubbish run more interesting than usual.

Lucky you!! What a waste to throw them away

[Bren In Pots]

That's a good find

[Thelma Sanders]

I take my unwanted books to the charity shops, but gardening books never get thrown away - oh no no no!

[Bill HH]

Thats a brilliant find.


Last year we hired a skip, the next morning it had several dusbins full of rotting fish guts in it.

Around here every skip seems to get a mattress in it

Lucky you

You don't expect people to sleep on the floor of them do you, Bren

Altho, what I have just typed has reminded me of a sad story of someone who fell asleep in one

That's stupid throwing them away. They'd cost about £20 each to buy new.

[Glutton4...]

Actually, they're about £50 each!

I expect they were urine sodden or the springs had broken. I can imagine people rescuing them then having to evacuate their house as the matress warms up.

And this is all from finding gardening books in a skip. So easy to get lost
Great isn't it!!!

I won't lie and say I had no rubbish jokes to make here, but I'd better skip them, it would be off-topic and I might be brought to book by a moderator...
