Thank you all. The skip is still there. The council workers are due to come tomorrow so I'll give them instructions to retrieve the remainder of the items lost in that skip. Today I have been simply relaxing. I haven't been sleeping properly for the last six weeks or so but had a better sleep last night and am functioning better for it. This carry-on has affected my health - my GP put me on pills but they are not working. I am making my health the priority.
