DAY 3

Today we took down the Christmas cards and all the ones I didn't want to reuse in my own card making have gone into a box ready to be taken to a special collection point as Christmas and birthday cards should not be recycled with normal paper due to the glitter and ink used.

The boys were given chocolate selection boxes for Christmas and so the cardboard outer and the plastic inner tray (PET1) have both gone into the recyclable bin, the wrappers from the chocolate bars have been burnt on the open fire we have in the sitting room.

Again veggie peelings have been wrapped in newspaper and put into the compostable bin.

I have made a lasagne ready for dinner, I buy passata to use in the sauce in glass jars so the glass can be put in the glass box and the lid is also recyclable so the only thing going into the kitchen bin is the minced beef wrapper (plastic bag).

Whilst taking David to his football course I stooped at the bottle bank and emptied the glass box.
