Thanks too for your kind words. I think most people could find a space for their charity shop box if they put their mind to it. Nobody is having guests round at the minute - so how about on the spare bed or under the dining table , if there's no room in the garage!?Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13494078135251214182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341483723976821096.post-86607302899809236302021-01-12T16:58:35.962+00:002021-01-12T16:58:35.962+00:00I tried to post twice on this and cannot.

We are also unable to donate things at the moment, we have boxes in the garage ready for when the charity shops accept things again.JanFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16408602791221401067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341483723976821096.post-42158071028435060292021-01-12T08:35:52.058+00:002021-01-12T08:35:52.058+00:00i have a small bedroom packed with dustbin bags of...i have a small bedroom packed with dustbin bags of stuff for the charity shop and car boots that the family dump at mothers .

I have an alarming number of shopping bags, so don't need any more, and the fabric was beginning to wear thin. The west midlands is a long way to go to give tutorials. Re your raincoat - You just need [for each sleeve] a strip about 2½" wide and the circumference of the sleeve to make a facing. You can use any firm weave fabric. Please can you email me, I probably have something suitable I can easily pop in an envelope with instructions?

And benefit others too. I have to say I find it sad that 6 good coats were just chucked in the skip. I've had stuff piled up for months, waiting to be passed on- surely they could wait a bit longer rather than just impatiently relegate it to landfill.Kezziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15705356707599121605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1341483723976821096.post-30550747089870421892021-01-11T09:19:04.590+00:002021-01-11T09:19:04.590+00:00Sounds like you were meant to find those jackets, ...Sounds like you were meant to find those jackets, Angela!
