It's hard to believe how busy I've been recently, but I'm going to tell you all anyway because I am trying to justify my existence and I like a bit of sympathy and praise (not much of that around here !!!)
It all started a couple of days ago when I came downstairs ...
... there was nothing to do except roll my sleeves up and start tidying...
The final result was quite impressive, even if I say so myself !!
As a result of all this hard work on my part, our local refuse collectors have gone on strike unless they get a pay rise. Consequently, I have got 1 bag of 'rubbish' remaining which I am prepared to post to one of you if you want it. In order to 'win' this assortment of apparently useful things you need to do the following please:
- Leave a comment on Penni's blog. There's only 1 bag of rubbish, so there is no point leaving more than 1 comment. Your first comment is the one that will be counted.
- Leave a link on your blog site linking back to this post so that other people can come and admire my hard work ... oh yes, and possibly win a bag of 'rubbish' candy.
- Be patient ... the winner will be announced on Friday 2nd September GMT, so no entries will be accepted after Thursday 1st September GMT
If anybody needs to know what is inside the rubbish bag ...
... there's lots of rubber stamping things, ribbon stuff, some bags of bits, stickers, brads and other 'useful' items. Penni seemed quite sad to see this stuff going into a bag, so I guess it's worth having if you know what to do with it.
Good Luck.
Stay Happy !!
Simon.

Thanks for sharing today. Sarah (at 1)
LOL! If I was not an ocean away and then some, I would throw my name in the ring, but no need to post that far! Simon, you crack me up! Next time you take down walls to get to the rubbish, make sure that Penny gets a few exra square feet out of the deal! Happy WOYWW -Amanda

Great post. I need a cleaning fairy to come and take care of my mess!
LOL- thats so funny. I hope you didnt get rid of anything Penni really wanted to keep.
O and if you could come round and sort my workspace out next that'd be great. The bin men round here are fab too so no worries there.
:-)
Very funny, perhaps you should set up your own blog! I will take your bag of rubbish. Love rubbish, you can never have enough. Don't be sad Penni, someone will look after it for you.
You nearly had me fooled there as I gasped thinking something dreadful had happened, well it is such a relief and a laugh....
Love the new craft suite and the rubbish looks amazing!

Hilarious! Glad it all ended well and the room is looking absolutely spiffing now. Nice candy too. Hope your week gets even better. Elizabeth x #60
Hahaha... you made me laugh!!! Lovely post...
Thanks for the chance with the rubbish, Penni :)
Oh Simon how funny! Don't go giving Len any ideas! I'd like to say how delighted I am with the stamps and punch which arrived yesterday morning. I love them - err, once I got into the very securely wrapped box! That was a real tease and I resorted to a kitchen knife! A million thanks!! Anyone wanting to buy any of Penni's pre-loved goodies that are for sale now and then - don't hesitate! Di x
I love this post... I can just imagine my other half doing the same (only he doesn't know my password I don't think) I will definitely be sharing this on my blog... and the bag of rubbish would happily sit in my craft room... Well done Simon on the clean up... you did work hard.. xx
Oh Lord... that's too funny..... WTG Simon! Hmm, I wonder if Mr B has my password..... (pootles off to go check)
Good post Simon - not sure if the workmen were diet coke moments though!...thanks for the chance...fingers crossed
Sarah - Stressedstamper x
I don't want to be included in the draw for your candy, thank you, but I just had to say what a great post, pmsl. Had me cracked up.
You did a good job Simon - but I still prefer YOUR desk ;)
Have linked your give-away of Penni's Goodies to my blog
