We're setting up a recycling contract in Medway.  At the moment the company
is saying they'll only take paperbacks, we're wondering if we do some nifty
work with a Stanley knife whether we can sneak our hardbacks in as well.
Let me know if you'd like details.

Hello

We have a large number of books, which are so tatty that we cannot sell them
to the public (they won't buy them).  As we are trying to reduce landfill
waste, I am keen to know if anyone has any green ways of disposing of old
stock?

I did hear that the new M6 relief road was built with old Mills & Boons!

Any thoughts gratefully received.
