Would prefer to send my discarded cloths to the charity shops myself Margaret, but haven't got the time to 'traipse' down to them. Yes, I know they put their bags through the door and say will collect on such a such a day, but wish they would put the date on too, as get muddled up with them all, and think probably missed the 'will collect on Friday' collection date, so can't be bothered ! ... 2 behind my door tonight.
Their bags tend to finish up collecting rubbish now, I'm afraid, and, ironically, become part of HBC collection. ... not on my own here, friends and colleagues do the same.
Have been without a white bag for about 2 months now, 'cause they didn't put it back after a collection and have been using the charity bags to put in my paper ...still no white bag left, surely the refuse collectors must realise that I 'aint got one now ?? Perhaps they think I have used it for some other purpose and are holding back on their supply ?
