The council are coming to collect the old three piece suite tomorrow morning & it needs to be outside by the front gate by 06:00 it's been crammed into the conservatory for three weeks.

I cant ask my brother to give me a lift to put it out today as it's raining & forecast for rain for most of the night. If it's wet they wont take it yet it goes on the back of an open truck.


I've got a tarpaulin but it's not quite big enough to over this huge three piece suite & if the suite isn't there when they roll up they just drive off so I have to have it outside by 06:00 I don't fancy getting up at 05:30 to wrestle with it on me own & if I miss it the cheapest 'Van & man' from the local classified charges £80 to take it to the recycling centre.
Have you got a nice sharp wood saw. Turn that suite into two large arm chairs.---With half the weight you only risk getting small hernias.--
