Shite that I don't need

I paid £300 in 1998 for an ATB with Shimano 3x7 gears so I could get fit ha ha. Then an air saddle cos it it was so damned uncomfortable. Used it about 10 times. Because of tempus fugit I then found I had osteoarthritis in lower spine and knees so couldn't peddle for more than 5 minutes. So I thought a £300 electric motor drive would help out. It doesn't - cos I can't get both feet on the peddles now.

Any one care to make an offer...........please

Haha , yes , got the dash cam still in its box in the garage , trailing wires really annoy me and can’t be arssd to get it hard wired .
I tend to start collecting tools and parts ready to do a task then end up taking it to a garage because either the weather or time is against me .
Usually someone needs a lift somewhere or it starts raining , I have some great tools though .

Where do I start?

Basically various amounts of shite I've bought in Aldi/Lidl and thought "that'll come in handy one day" and thus has never been used and (most of which) is still in the box.

It's worse when you buy a tool to do a job. Then as you're doing that job you find the tool you bought when you originally thought about doing the job, and never unwrapped because you never did the job.....

I did manage to declutter quite well once. My ex wife's solicitor wrote into the agreement that any property left after said date became my exs. "when are you coming to get the rest of your shte?" I think you'll find that's YOUR shte now. :)

Mercury is fetching around £50 per lb at the moment I believe so best part of a grands worth probably...
