They have opened our first recycling centre in Pwllheli instead of skips been left in the villages once a month. I visited today and there are skips for everything - tyres, fluorescent tubes, electrical items, car batteries. There is soooooo much that I can take there that is currently hidden away on the smallholding. _________________ www.overthegate.co.uk Last edited by kaz on Sun Jan 20, 2008 5:53 pm; edited 1 time in total Back to top Kathy Site Admin Joined: 15 Jun 2006 Posts: 5561 Location: Scotland Posted: Sat Jan 19, 2008 11:20 pm    Post subject:   Wonderful Kaz!
