Review: Trips to the Tip (recycling centre)
I kinda love a trip to the tip.
I'm moving house so have lots of old crap to throw away.
bang it all in the boot of the car.
10 mins down the road, get to the tip.
show off my reverse parking skills by parking in the diagonal bays.
ask the bloke in the Hi-Vis "would you count this old hoover as plastic or metal?"
His eyes light up with £ signs as he asks "is that a dyson?"
"No mate, its some cheap shit from tesco."
"chuck it in the metal bin" he nods towards the big metal skip and is pleased that his sage judgement has been heeded.
then you get to climb the stairs to the massive skip and toss your crap in.
Occasionally I have to get sneaky and hide a bag of rubbish around a corner or chuck it in a skip i'm 50% sure is the right category.
Score: 9.5/10 Strangely Cathartic
