But not tonight. I noticed there was no lock and rescued a big china lion - worth about £50, and a big lovely white bear that glows in the dark when touched. That's brand new, I'd say it was worth at least £20.

Gawd knows what was at the bottom of the bins. It's a disgrace what goes to land fill.
...have you spoken to them in the shop, Gusto...asked them why these things go to land fill, when they’re perfectly good and usable, because there doesn’t seem any logic...?...
