I am an official Scrounger and proud

When it comes to recycling what about the skip outside the lotties that was full of stuff (real junk by the look of it all) one evening and by the next lunchtime almost empty. Noone saw it go but the committee are furious having paid for a skip and now got nothing to put in it. True Yorkshire thrift coming to the fore.

Hi Digger
they are luck that the skip was still there...it could be turned in a small pond or else!!

I used to have a Fiat 126 a few years ago - I kept rabbits and guinea pigs - managed to fit in two full sized bales of straw - that took some doing I can tell you! LOL DDL

Bet there wasn't much room for the rabbits and guinea pigs.

Bet you feel right at home here then!
I'm so glad there are people like me around. Mr MB was quite put out when I went 'skipdiving' after we got the lottie. He had been brought up right and wasn't qute sure that you could liberate things from dump heaven. He's quite got into it now though, I'm glad to say.
Back in the 70's I had a book about living for free - can't remember the title, but can see some of the pages. it was all about making furniture from pallets, and recycling everything.

Just think of all that stuff I could have in the south with that wreck. They interviewed someone on TV tonight who had come all the way down from Liverpool. I guess ebay will be full of Nappies Dog Food and car parts very soon.

LOL i saw someone with a tractor and trailer and they had a motorbike on the back. Some guy was walking up the beach with an exhaust pipe. Just think what you could make with that benacre!
