I have inherited my dads foible. One day I might use that valve from an old gas bottle. Just wait and see. Once a year we have what is known as an inorganic collection. householders are encouraged to dispose of all the unnnescsessary items around the house. at this time of year out come all the pick-up trucks and vans, it's amazing what some people discard. Bicycles with a flat tyre, Bookshelves, vacuum cleaners, you name it. Granted, most of it is rubbish but hey, one day! So there I was faced with the dillemma of having to throw out my hoardings of several years, holding onto not only my rubbish, but other peoples. I bit the bullet and I can now proudly say, my name is Olly, I was a hoarder!
