We have had a very busy day today.
Had an appointment at the tip at lunchtime. We loaded the trailer up with all sorts if stuff....old desk, a computer desk...monitor, books, etc etc.
All very well but we had to unload it ourselves & there were all different containers. Had to move to each different one & then lug the stuff up about ten steps at each container.
Obviously we were doing it all wrong...everyone else were obviously regulars who go each week.
We had too much stuff!
Took Connie a walk this afternoon....she’s such a good girl.
Three good things:
1. I was up in the night & as clear as anything over Blackpool Tower area was Mars. I was thrilled to see it....glowing pink, I put Harrys wellies on & went out to take a photo at 3.30am but if course it’s rubbish!
2. Our buyers have signed our contract...ours will be ready tomorrow!
3. I’m looking forward to an early night!
Might be lax at commenting tonight! I have walked 12,000 steps & I can tell!
I love this disappearing roadway. We had a trip to the tip recently to take one of our damaged armchairs. (All broken up as someone wanted the leather but still pretty heavy.) Our tip is so well organised - no steps to climb but we still had to heave it up into the skip. And of course they can't help you out at the moment.
@busylady No we knew that before we went but didn’t bargain on the steps! Feel happier now though...all that rubbish away....I can’t believe how much stuff we have either given or binned over this last two years. More to go next year when we move into our new done up place!
A beautiful scene with the Autumn sunlight casting shadows on the road .( that doesn't really make sense but I am sure you know what I mean !! ) You have had a busy day -- I don't like going to the recycle centre - so many bins to chose from !! thank God Gary is there to sort things out for me ! So much to do last minute- rest well tonight ! :)
A lovely scene from you! fav. I can't believe you were lugging stuff all over at the tip! We just couldn't do that but really there isn't any alternative. just glad you didn't damage yourselves.
Funny Mars is on our side of the world too! Looking north east around 9pm. You have to have the camera so still to take a picture - I can't be bothered now!
Goodness Pat, sounds like you had a marathon trip to the tip. You'll be glad when your move is finally over. This looks like a lovely, shady avenue of trees.
@maggiemae I really hoped someone would have a great photo for us on here but I haven't seen one yet! I can’t be bothered either! Good to see it though.

Normally the chaps are very good & help you but of course not allowed now...Harry was all for going on his own...good job I insisted!
Pat you must be exhausted! I'm gradually working my way round the house room by room clearing out stuff we have collected over the years. Loads of Ant's stuff to sort through but I'm getting there slowly. I am getting very 'gung ho' with throwing stuff out. Hope I don't regret it later! Love your scene. Definitely a light at the end of the tunnel shot.x
Our local tip is just the same.They're supposed to help but just stand around doing nothing.John has difficulty walking up a steep, sometimes slippery,slope.He prefers to go to a tip a little further away, which is easier to negotiate.
