Hi Bill,
I like how you've tried to stuff so much stuff into this, like a big
chest or, yes, that cupboard.
It's a never-ending problem, isn't it. You wish burning would do the
trick but, of course, it doesn't for all the many obvious reasons.
Cheers,
Jill

Stuff
is unshiftable you try to do it you don’t want it neither does
anybody else
not for any price even free give it a whirl you’ll see whack it on
gumtree
you’ll get a couple of sniffs maybe but then they’ll see oh what
a pity too
far do you ever get over Ballarat way you don’t and especially not
carting
a bloody great old hot water service so you try the op shop for
smaller
stuff and even at Vinnies they turn up their nose and suggest you
give the
Uniting Church one a go it’s open tomorrow but you can’t wait
that long it
must go the tip costs money bury the bloody stuff burn it no it would
stink
that’s that then back into the cupboard it goes till next year
