I have received a cheque - as long as it doesn't bounce I will have money to spend/put in collecting tins.
I have money promised, but not until the end of the month.
The knees are bad, though. I have been climbing up and down the ladder to the loft, bringing things down to sell, carrying them up a flight of stairs - and then returning what was not sold.
But - the van is booked, the final countdown is in progress. Lift off is Friday afternoon sometime.
