A friend generously gave me an old one that he had lent to a relative (the relative no longer used it). Unfortunately it stinks of cats and cat pish. Gave it a good scrub, but the smell of the inside is still dodgy. It's doing the job just now though, and I'll get a new one when I get paid (or one from the Re-Use Centre). It will cost £23 to get rid of the old fridges though, as that's how much the council charge to pick up appliances or large items. And I've got to carry them both down the stairs (I live on the top floor). It's free to dispose of them at the council recycling centres, but I don't drive and f**k carrying a fridge (one on each arm?) a few miles. Perhaps I could put them in the back of a taxi, give the driver a tenner, and leave it at that? Leave it on the pavement, spray a political slogan on it and call it cutting edge street art. With a bit of luck some mug will offer you £5,000 for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just horse out the window and leave it in a crumpled heap at the bottom, council will take it away eventually. There will be 2 to dispose of (the council will take up to 6 items, so won't be charged twice if I do ask them to pick them up) once I get a new one. Were I to lob them out the window the results would be a spectacular destruction. I could just wait until the big bins outside are emptied then sneakily chuck them in one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd just be making the individual pieces far easier for the scaffies to deal with. It's what they would want.

I'll need to look in to this. Just now, Hedgecutter said: You'd just be making the individual pieces far easier for the scaffies to deal with. It's what they would want.

SlipperyP Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Stood in a queue for 4 an half hours yesterday in the blistering sun to put a paper flower on a place with Kings photo in front...took about 10 second once I got to the actual procession. OK was with the wife, boy. Daughter was doing with the school. I reminded me of Prestwick new year rave, without the dogs & drugs. Plenty of laughter and jokes on they way and first aid handing out ammonia to sniff to keep us all alive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supermik Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 That is almost 2 months now that I have had my motorbike. After today's little jaunt it now has 61 miles in total on the clock! After the clocks change on Saturday, I will probably not be on it again till the springtime. #waste of money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure that's why there are so many motorbike deaths, especially in the Highlands. Midlife crisisers buy them who haven't ridden for years but don't use them day to day. Then go on a fast burn up the A82. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Failing that, wash it with a solution of bicarb. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
