so a bit of garage room
Door opens out of the office, not into?
Is there one of those yokes there?I have been without Ruth in deciding what goes to the tip this week. Over the last few months I have rounded up all the old cushions, pillows and quilts etc. Some of which were not even mine, but ending up here when emptying other people's houses.A decision has been made.
I reckon it is about a cubic yard of them gone now. They were so old that if someone was desperate for such items, I would buy them new ones, rather than give them to someone to use.
Next to go is the collection of metal for recycling. Again, ancient stuff that really has no use. I will keep one large grill pan, but that is it. It is useful as a firm surface for dividing plants.
Gradually there are spaces starting to appear in cupboards.
The next area to sort is the garage, not helped by the fact that the council is not doing its large items collections. Is there anything you have been looking for that might be at the back of my garage?
My place runs 'pre-retirement courses' which these days are nothing more than Microsoft Teams presentation advice on pension options and how to claim them, the state pension and a couple of links on volunteering - which took up a couple of hours this afternoonThey used to run work experience for kids at school . Why don't they run retirement experience for workers ?
We had an online presentation tonight by my son's school about choosing his GCSEs, etc. Now, as I used to do that job, I know what it's all about and how it works. Even so, the presenter bombarded us (and all the other parents watching) with so much unnecessary information and jargon, and in a manner that made very little to no logical sense, that even I was confused by the end of it. The other parents must have been completely at sea
