Waste Not, Want Not ……..

Today I went to SCARF, a Resource Centre in Wolverhampton, (on the Banga bus) to see if I could find any useful stuff to make things with ……
Res1
You never know what you’re going to find …. its just piles of tat, from floor to ceiling, but with a bit of imagination you can turn that tat into erm…………. treasure!
20p
Like this clock for 20p
rose
or these gymkhana rosettes for 25p and knicker elastic at 10p a metre.
rub 
I was a bit flummoxed by the blue rubbix cubes ……….

cab and milk
And as for this basket of plastic red cabbages and glass milk bottles …….

BUT THIS WAS MY BEST BUY ………………………………….  wait for it ……

Picture 119
I got a seagull!

Picture 142
How brilliant is that? 
Bet SCARF will be inundated with people wanting to buy seagulls!

Sorry we are going to have to add word verification our comments section as it seems we are again being bombarded with spam!!! So if your comment doesn't come up straight away it means that our lady "that does" is going through them with a fine toothcomb, so that the spammers don't get through .....This is such a robust pain in the bottom and as such we have boycotted all SPAM comestibles in protest ..... sandwiches, fritters, fricasse etc.!!!!!!
