I've been of from work until today, using up the last of my holiday, and was awoken by Mum yesterday to tell me that our downstairs neighbour had arranged a bulk refuse collection by the council, so did I want to get rid of a lot of the stuff that's been taking up space in our spare room? We ended up taking down three old desktop PCs, two hoovers, a microwave, a pedestal fan, two scanners, two printers, and a few other bits and pieces as well. I was tempted to empty the space under my bed out, and take that down as well, as the base has been caving in for years, but Mum thought that might be pushing it, so I didn't.
We popped into town, and I decided to do a quick trip into Brighton. I got a purple fleece, two pairs of black jogging pants, for lounging around in at home, and two pairs of supersoft chenille socks, for £21 in Bon Marche, and used the £10 Virgin gift card Clare gave me for Christmas to buy the Season One DVD set of Will and Grace for only £7.99. Bargain!
Popped into EAT to get a spicy Crayfish and Noodle salad for a late lunch, then came home, to find that the refuse collection hadn't been done, and Mum had checked with our neighbours, who said to take the bed down if I wanted it to go. Emptied the base out, and took it down, so I'm now sleeping on a mattress on the floor for a month or two until I can get a new bedstead!
Not a very exciting day, but quite productive! Today all I've done is go to Morrisons in Seaford with Daniel, and pop into town here for a few bits of non-food shopping. It's back to work at 8am tomorrow, though I'm off again on Sunday, and I'm going out for a pub lunch with Clare :-)
