What planet???
« on: August 15, 2012, 10:57:42 pm »
I sometimes wonder what planet some people are from. I just saw this posted on Freecycle. I'm sure she'll be inundated with offers  ::)


"Pig Arcs or similar pig housing wanted in the aberdeenshire area - must be in[/size]fairly good condition

pig troughs or feeders needed as well

Rare breed piglets if you have them !!"

Our holding has Anglo Nubian and British Toggenburg goats, Gotland sheep, Franconian Geese, Blue Swedish ducks, a whole load of mongrel hens and two semi-feral children.

How long did you say it would take me to dig this 5 acres with my spade?

 ;D

It amazing how cheeky some people are, to ask for stuff of value - but it's suprising what gets offered sometimes - someone offered a chain harrow, a zigzag harrow and two (tractor mount) cultivators on freecycle  recently - naturally someone beat me to them  ::)

Then again, I did get two large chest freezers  8) , so I can't complain.

Twice recently someone has put on ours, "Wanted large freezer.  Must be delivered."   No please or thank you.  Also seen "Wanted.  DS Lite.  Must be pink."  and wants for caravans and cars.  Talk about optomistic.   ;D
