Hi, If anyone has a big furniture delivery, please may I recycle your packaging? I have a chest of drawers that I am sending back but their packaging was all wet so I have to find some to replace it. Ideal would be boxes 140cm x 90 x 50 but can totally cobble different items together so anything offered would be great. I am in SE21 so anywhere walkable is fab. Thank ou -
They'd been there for days but I hadn't tied them to this thread. Nice work, it was bugging me! -
Off topic, but when I was a kid in Streatham, long ago, apart from the milkman (rarely if ever milkwoman), who also delivered yoghurt - very exotic - in little glass jars, we also had regular deliveries of coal, bread and cheesecakes (not the kind we know now, they had coconut on top), fruit and veg, and paraffin (both pink and blue). I'm not entirely sure we have lost "something amazing" by buying milk in shops. The glass bottles were left on the doorstep and the metallic tops were pecked through by birds getting at the cream/milk. Or else the bottles were nicked. And then there was the rag and bone man.... bell and horse and cart, just like Steptoe. God I'm old. We didn't have supermarket deliveries. We didn't have supermarkets. I remember the first supermarket opening in Streatham. It was quite amazing having to walk round and put your own shopping in a basket. As you were ..... Sorry OP and admin.
