I was going to take a microwave to the tip..
My mate told me that I have to show official identification before being allowed in.. This is to stop others not of this council area..
I put it outside my gate instead.. Someone got a good microwave for nothing..

Good idea.
Next time we have something which is too big for us to take to the dump, and which the council would charge an arm and a leg to take away, I shall put it at the bottom of our drive with an appropriate note:
"Fully working, but no longer needed. Please help yourself."
If no-one else, the Pikeys will have it.
We get a touring scrap van. I've put stuff out and it is usually gone quite quickly.
We do too. Very handy.
I put books out.. and any furniture.. Things don't stay out there very long..
I had a Henry hoover.. I put it on the Next Door site.. A lady from the next street asked for it.. She was over the moon and bought me some chocolates..
