Default 1 sack of rubbish

We have been here since Easter (is that 8 weeks?) and yesterday I threw away our first sack of business rubbish - and it wasn't even that full, just getting on my nerves.

I think that we must be reusing or recycling getting on for 95% of the stuff that comes through the door - do I get a badge for this?

The stuff that is left over is the plastic strapping from some of the bigger boxes, a couple of knackered pens and the little strips from the mailing sacks - anyone know what can be done with these?

Thank you - it is very lovely - I like the way you even managed to find a recycled pin.

Thats fantastic Arabella - surely there's a PR story in that. Get a press release written and start distributing - you're bound to get it published as nearly everything at the moment is about carbon footprints, global warming etc.

Wonder if the council will refund you some council tax for that? I doubt it!
