Any Old Plastic

Let's end the day with a picture.

I was passing a local coffee shop t'other day, which happened to be bin collections.

And there, on the pile, were these crates. I asked them if I could have them, and as they get charged for disposal they were more than happy.

And I now have a supply of nice plastic stacable trays for my growing Junkk collection.

Now, if only there was a way to connect such opportunities around the place. Oo, oo, I know.... JunkkYard!

I wish I had their awareness. One day...

Re-cycle of Life

You may also like to consider http://www.junkk.com.

It is mainly about ideas to make things out of junk, but amongst other things has a section that is similar to Freecycle (only with user-specified search radius from next door to the whole country, depending on how far you feel like going to collect. Plus a picture upload facility). As both are free, try all and see what works first.

I now know of some others who are also welcome on our site... ta!

JunkkYard Blues.. and Waves

Time for a picture. And another mea culpa.

I often sigh that certain aspects of the site are not getting more contributions, as opposed to views). Ideas. Forum. Blog. JunkkYard.



Well, having just had a rummage around it for a recent post to another site, I realised that I have not exactly been doing my bit, either.

So here you are. It's a piece of cardboard I found propped up against a recycling skip. It is huge. Now I know It could be recycled. But i reckon it's too good not to reuse. So I have it here. Perfect for any am:dram with a bit of space.

You just need to be within 250 miles of HR9.
