Yeah, we've sold a bit.
You can see some gaps.
I came in this morning.
Two lovely bags of books, donations.
Don't forget.
Don't forget all the donations from the books goes to nappies.
So I've got to sign that.
It's lovely out here today.
It's a little bit cold.
It's still a little bit cold.
But don't forget.
There we are.
See?
They all go to nappies.
They don't go in to pay in the bills.
The book money is ring-fenced.
We've still got a lot of sticks here.
And don't forget, now they're three for fifty.
Now people have been coming in and having them for their lizards and stuff.
Not just craft.
Some people are having them for wands.
Harry Potter fans.
And some people have been coming in just for their fish tanks.
Stuff like that.
CDs have gone well while we were on sale.
Because of course they're two fifty now or less.
Put out some more stock because we had a bit of room.
Put up some pretty wedding dresses now.
We've still got this beautiful dress.
Somebody was interested in it the other day.
But it was too small.
It's a very tight fitting dress but it's beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful.
Some other little dresses we found.
I'm having a baked potato.
I'm not a fan of breakfast.
But I fancy the baked potato.
So I thought I'll have a baked potato for breakfast.
So I just wanted to remind the staff that we provide lunch.
Usually in the form.
As long as you're doing the full day.
Usually in the form of a micro meal or potato.
Jacket.
Some chips in there too.
So we always provide that.
Plus tea and coffee.
Bits of noodles.
I've got noodles about.
I'll put them out.
Tea and coffee for volunteers.
So just you to be aware of that.
If you're looking to volunteer.
What I don't do is support the Greggs epidemic.
So we don't pay because I'm just going to have Greggs every day.
Because it's very expensive and it's not actually that healthy.
We try and promote it to be healthy because we're the food bank.
Obviously we do our best to do healthy stuff.
So that's why our top up shop hasn't got anything that's got lots of sugar in it.
I don't know if we've got any rice snaps left now because I think most of the rice snaps are gone.
But they were on an amber.
But everything I pick up.
Unless it's been donated in.
Because if it's been donated in.
Oh I think we've got donations.
Oh gosh that's heavy.
No I don't think I've got.
Oh I've got a bag of wool.
I forgot about that.
Bag of wool for my knitters.
If it can come in.
Alright so these got to go by May guys.
What do they say on them?
Oh they're green.
So we try not to buy anything or give anything out purposefully.
They're full of sugar.
Because we've got a responsibility as a food bank.
If somebody brings in chocolate or somebody brings in sweets.
We put them on there.
It's not the end of the world is it?
But we don't intentionally fill people up with...
So if I'm palming them off with Weetabix.
This week you know why.
Because the date's coming up.
They've lasted well haven't they?
I couldn't get them last time I was there.
Weetabix themselves had gone up to like... I don't know.
Something crazy.
Like full pound a box.
Something stupid like that.
So I'm going to have my baked potatoes now because I've been fancying it.
I'm going to bake the potatoes at the moment.
I still got the last half I bought off the market.
We're still getting through it.
And then I bought some micro ones then as well.
Because I always forget to bring it with me in the morning.
Because I'm useless in the mornings with time.
My tablets don't kick in and I'm like oh god you know.
So you know me I'm usually up late so mornings are no best.
Right I've got to go and get a customer.
