We actually need an ironing board, and I was a bit tempted but for the fact it had been raining so this one was looking rather grotty. To tell you the truth I don't use the iron much. I throw the rumpled garment in the drier with a damp cloth, whistle Dixie out of tune for five minutes and Bob's your uncle.

Help me here, I don't understand. You get a new bed and a new chair. Well that's fine and dandy. But instead of giving your old mattress and chair away to a good home, you load it up in a van, drive presumably some distance with it, and get out of the van and you and your mate dump it in the dead of night next to some wilderness. This doesn't make a lot of sense to me, there are many places only too happy to take such goods. I assume it was dumped at night, because it would sure look odd dropping these items off by the side of the road in broad daylight. Why do people do this?

We were about and about the other day and all manner of goods were on offer at an outrageously cheap price. A vaccuum cleaner, an ironing board and this TV, whether it works or not is another matter...

Well I'm thinking this crab looks beautiful, so perfect in form and colour. I don't like to think too much about the fact that we ate it.
