Filled a LWB van with anything that may have been of value or useful and headed into Barry which apparently has 17 charity shops of one kind or the other..
After knocking on half a dozen doors , they didn't even want to see what we had , they are all jam packed, the council shop tomorrow in Lamby way , failing that its a skip . What a sign of the times.
I assume lockdown has led to lots of people getting rid or wanting to get rid of stuff after death in the family , moving etc and suddenly these places have been overwhelmed ?

Very few vans , not many drivers , not much storage space 🙄
