All these memories being resurrected, I will have a king-size headache at this rate!

Checked this out too, see link below for why 'Trigger' was not called by his stage name:

Also mentioned in the link above is Roy Rogers, yet another memory from many years' ago – must be getting old after all!

In my shed, l leave some chocolate on a dish to warn me if mice are getting in.
Yesterday, the chocolate was gone! I decided to find where they were coming in and after pulling a load of stuff out, l found the hole. I covered it with a piece of flat metal and put a brick on top.

I then had the job of putting all the stuff back in. I looked at it and thought why am l keeping these things, l will probably never use them.

I binned some things and thought l would take my old hair dryer on a stand and a Flymo mower, l never use to the tip.
The thought of having to put the seats down in my car, load it with the items and take them to the tip seemed a bit of a bind.

Instead, l decided to put them on the verge outside my house but further up the road and if they hadn’t gone by 2.30pm, l would take them to the tip.

Within half an hour, l could hear a lorry’s engine running outside my fence and l heard a man say, ‘I’m sure we can find room for these’ and off they went.

That was wonderful for me, even though for half an hour, l was probably classed as a ‘fly tipper’!

Who are these people? Do they just drive round and round looking for tat?
I could see that it was a tall lorry with a wired trailer like the council’s recycling vehicles.

Interesting article, Baz. Thank you

I bet there's a scrap metal merchant named Roy Rogers somewhere too....where will this end?
