I can nearly equal that - I can photograph the polystyrene packaging that encased our new fridge-freezer today if you want :lol: Or maybe you'd like a photograph of one of the circuit boards from the wheel balancer that I was fiddling with earlier.
.......I'm afraid I'd struggle to put up an even slightly exciting photo from today :(

I've brought all that back home with me because the Household waste recycling centre was in the middle of Saturday rushhour so I just drove past it and headed home. While I'm sure your polystyrene is still in intact large pieces, the relatively smaller packaging from a new built-in oven ended up in hundreds of pieces in the wheelie bin.

No threshhold of excitingness on POTD, as I have just proved!

Here's one from yesterday which I'm sure will stir the passions of ornithology club.

I only have boring boxes and envelopes from Amazon and eBay :(
Hard Drive caddy, RAM card, blowlamp, Officium CD and Shea butter. Stir them in a pot and see what you get.

The forum's easiest thread to join in, participating is more fun then viewing so join in if you can.

Its easy. For example.

This has been a very rare sight recently, so I just pointed my simple little digital camera up at the sky, clicked the shutter, and if I say so myself, nice composition.

Mine was a '56 Cresta. My first diesel conversion, fitted a Perkins 4/99 engine complete kit in 1959. Brilliant fuel consumption dreadful performance.

I had a Irish guy ask me if I could sell his Cherokee Grand Chief for him from my forecourt, I said ok bring it up.

A couple of days later I heard what I thought was a diesel tractor coming up the street then saw it was the Cherokee. :shock:

He'd taken the fine six cylinder petrol engine out and replaced it with a second hand Ford four cylinder diesel engine out of a JCB.
Man is, by nature, a lazy beast, he does not need twice encouraging to do nothing.

I'm guessing you simply add it to Taraxacum officinale and you get your answer - though actually finding a genuine authentic version for sale can be quite a challenge these days. 8-[
