I need to clear out the garage/workshop & I have a fair amount of
surplus tools, spanners, pliers, tool bags etc. Nothing worth
ebaying or freecycle ing, but I don't want to just bin it all.


ISTR there is a charity which collects stuff like this & ships it to
third world countries so it can be reused?


You don't think it's good enough to Freecycle, so you want to dump it
on the third world? Brilliant!


No, I can't be arsed to freecycle it.


[That doesn't make sense.

You've already expended more effort on usenet than it would take to
list it on Freecycle.]

There speaks a man who hasn't used freecycle (or has way more patience than
many folk have). As a group creator, owner, moderator and user I can see
why folk sometimes find it too much trouble, particularly for a number of
small items.
