A trip to the Lock-up

There are still plenty of items in the lock-up, that haven’t made it to our new home.  In fact, we are are wondering why on earth we packed some of them up to take with us.  You know what it’s like – we decided to take them “just in case”. Yesterday we had a bit of a clean out, and a lucky few items were chosen to make a trip down to the Op Shop where they will no doubt find a new home.  Out went the big cabinet for our previous TV, a heavy metal goose necked lamp, and a pile of storage baskets.  A few other bits and pieces were thrown in the back of the 4WD too, and away we went with our donations, which are always gratefully received.  We are not giving away the water containers though, that’s for our emergency water supply.  It didn’t really make a dent in what is stored in our lock-up, but every bit helps.  Once Robin has his new shed erected in the back yard, all his tools will finally have a home, so that will make a big difference to what we still have in storage.

The Op Shop was really humming with people dropping donations off, and others looking for a bargain.   All proceeds from the  Levin Hospice Shop support the  Arohanui Hospice in Palmerston North, a very worthy cause.
