Now back to tidying up the mess and rehoming my stash of cable ties. I
may even (eventually) get round to using a couple of cable ties which
is what I set out to do some time ago.


Re-usable cable ties, please. The number of used-once cable ties you see
around the place, mostly cut off and lying on the ground where they fell,
is huge.


I got a bundle of re-usable ones some time ago and have found them
excellent. Sometimes, almost immediately after applying one, I realise I
want to change something or other. Far easier and better to open it up
and re-use than cut off and use a new one.


I generally use reuseable ones, but they aren't as neat as the one-time
ones and come in a very restricted colour range. So, if its a
semi-permanent job, I'll use the one time version.
