Morning, guys.

We're in.

We've just had a bag of... well, we've had three bags.

Two bags are for Poundshop, because it's thickness, you know... still good, still good, but it'd be Poundshop for the bag for five, you know.

Rests, big huge bag of boutique, probably £100, £150 worth of clothes in there.

That's what we are reselling for, you know.

Sales are on, as you know.

I got a lot of baby milk, which is the ones that are not lactose-free, so I might, because I get a lot of people asking for them, for themselves, adults, so I might put them up for donation only, because I've got two runs full anyway in every shop.

So, in every of our fruit banks.

So I don't really need the 12 tins I've got with it.

Right, so, we've still got this lovely item here.

This one I've put down to 25 to get it gone.

These have been sold, being picked up Monday, I believe, but I've just come out here at the way.

I've rung a council about this drain, because it's stagnant and it stinks.

These have come in today.

They're lovely.

I've seen people sell these chairs, like £75 each, when they've upcycled them.

Like we've done Alice in Wonderland on there and painted the chairs, and up to £75.

So I've got them up for £40 today.

I have got some nirvana material and some Elvis.

What's if and in are, I'm able to give it to my mother, because she's used to a polster, to see if she could make an Elvis chair and a nirvana, but we haven't really got the time or the energy.

And I mean, she's got bags and bags of jewellery and stuff to sort and the rest of it.

We haven't really got the time to be creative.

So I put them up for £40 if they're gone today.

Okay, I'm not going to go any lower on them, because really I don't think they should even be £40, because I know that these chairs go really well for upcycling.

So we're very cheap on our furniture, as it is, guys, to be honest, a lot cheaper than the other furniture shops.

So you're having a bargain anyway with the furniture.

I am gutted, because I like doing stuff like that as well, but I haven't got the time.

I haven't got the time to do them.

When I've had funky bits of material in, like the nirvana stuff, you know, because you could do that in black and yellow, so you couldn't really put a bit of gold on it.

And the Elvis chair and stuff, I kept it back to do these chairs.

So I might take them off.

I've got to fix the sign.

I've got to find that kid's name.

He was in the newspaper.

Oh, I've got to go and check around by there and else.

He was in the newspaper the other day by the police.

And he's the one who took my sign and damaged it.

So yeah, we've got a couple of good to go.

I think I got three food ones in.

So they're five pounds each.

I'll do the three for a tenner.

It's all ambient food and it's all in date, but short date.

And then these are goods to waste from the shop.

So we've just put a few things... Oh, that's a food one I think.

We should have... Yeah, if they're food ones, they'll have the food on them.

But these are just five pound a bag.

It's like a lucky bag.

Lucky bag.

We don't know what's in it.

Could be anything.

Five pound each day.

Alright guys, I'll do three for a tenner today because it's Sunday.

So ten pound... Oh, I'm lifting.

Three for a tenner for them.

If we're coming today, I've got three food ones.

They've gone quite well, the food ones are.

It's something that we tried in.

We're still a food bank, so our food bank food is still free.

But we could also register as a pantry as well as a food bank.

Couldn't we?

You know, I've always wanted to do the food for free, but we get so much backlash.

I don't know why we don't charge for it, to be honest.

I don't know why we don't charge for a lot of stuff that we give out because we get a backlash anyway.

So we might as well as and help us pay the rents better.

That's the way I look at it.

So what we're doing is trialing the Good To Go bags before we go on the Good To Go app.

But the food bank is still free, you know, well, free to our customers and donators, which we're allowed to do because we are a private food bank.

So anybody who says differently is just jealous because they can't develop a business and a strategy as good as mine because they're too busy on the make payment for their own plastic surgery and their botox and their nails and their hair and all the rest of it.

You're lucky if I brush my hair.

I remember last time I had my nails done.

And I'm head to toe in Jane's baby bag.

Pound shop.

Not even a boutique.

You might get a chance to shop in a boutique section.

Dan's going to pick up off a lady now who's clearing her house.

We had those teddies off her.

Absolutely stunning teddies they were.

She got a pile of stuff for us today.

It's a lady who went to pick up from Sammy yesterday and it was not there.

She took it in for us.

So instead of leaving it out because it was on the picture, it was all outside, she took it in for us.

It's all that Christmas stuff and what have you.

That you were going to pick up for us.

Loom band fairies have been in.

If you see a loom band fairy, squash it like this.

Because they chuck them everywhere.

We'll put her in there.

She looks cute doesn't she?

Right, come on guys.

We've got loads of stuff.

Absolutely tons.

The toys have gone down I think.

Unless you've like stashed them somewhere else.

I don't know.

But, stunning.

Come up lovely.

I think you've had a wash Owen.

I think, well I was going to say in a week or two.

I think this will be shopped down nicely and display the tables better.

But I can't guarantee that can I?

I've got two bags of bric-a-brac down there.

Now we've got a lady who is emigrating to Australia.

Got a pile of stuff for us.

Oh I love this.

Oh I love this item.

It's like a little penny.

It's like a little penny lock.

Proper.

I don't know whether somebody has made it and embroidered it.

It's lovely.

It's absolutely stunning it is.

I've got a lady who is emigrating and has given us a pile of stuff.

And... oh you smell nice.

Smile.

I've got this lady who is clearing a house and I've got another lady who is clearing a house as well.

So thank you for thinking of us.

We do appreciate it but we need a furniture shop now.

Furniture shop and a display shop because what I want to do is display the cots like mother care.

Because there's not very many places you can go now as a mother to go and see the cots and everything set up and have that experience.

You know.

Isn't it?

I mean we've got Ikea.

Who else?

John Lewis probably.

Oh we've pulled that fridge down now over there.

They should tie that fridge up by right.

They're not supposed to.

You're not supposed to put a fridge out without tying it up here because kids could get in there and you can't get out from the inside.

I might get Dan to go over and do that now.

Or seat it with some no nails or something because you're not supposed to leave them open with the lids there.

Well where else can you go to view like cots and you know.

Like there's no dress for cots because you can see the furniture we're getting.

I mean the furniture we're getting is stunning.

You know.

We're getting stuff all the time like.

But it would be nice wouldn't it?

To like put that up.

Put some books on it.

A lamp.

Yeah.

You know.

Put a throw over the chair.

You know.

And a cushion.

I'll try not to fill it up with bags and donations.

It's warm out here so it's cold in the shop.

Nice and cool.

But I'll try not to do that.

Fill up the other furniture shop with.

And we need some other locations to run our clubs in.

So we need more customers.

So that we get more money.

So we get more revenue.

So that we can take on more properties.

I'm looking for a warehouse.

This end of the valley.

Something big.

We've got something big in mind but it got stairs and it's put me off.

I can't do the stairs.

So unless somebody.

And it's a really awkward staircase.

To put a stair lift on.

I'd need at least two short ones.

At least two.

And another one.

Because I think there's another stair up there as well.

So.

You know.

It's just like the pound shop.

I don't do nothing in the pound shop.

I do it once a day in the pound shop.

Because the stair is too steep for my knees now.

So we need a warehouse.

I need it flat if I'm honest.

It's got to be like level with the pavement.

Because it's so difficult.

You know.

It's not fair on anybody else if they've got to take stuff up and down stairs either.

So we need like a warehouse.

Rather than a shop.

Is what I'm thinking.

Because we can still have a shop at the warehouse.

Can't we?

We need a furniture shop.

So something with big windows.

Now like Blackwood was.

But not Blackwood.

Because of the window attacks obviously.

Because we also express that to that landlord you see.

That we were going to turn it into a furniture venue rather than what we've already got.

Sort of thing.

You know.

You know.

There's some big ones here.

But the rents are stupid.

The rents up there are going to be stupid on Poundland and that one.

And to be honest.

This is enough furniture for you.

Because there's already a couple of furniture shops here.

So we'd need a furniture shop.

Where people can park at.

And come and have a look.

We've set up prams.

Set up the...

What are they called?

Cots.

Like a nursery.

Have it like pods.

You know.

Like Ikea.

But you can walk around it like.

But not sort of...

What are we doing now?

A little inner fart?

I don't know.

Sunday morning.

Sunday morning.

Left like fart.

Do you see that?

I don't know.

None such queer as folk.

And then a smaller venue.

To do our craft sessions with the Mothers and the Lego Club.

And craft for maybe kids.

And other stuff.

You know.

Like I looked at this one.

But this is very small.

But this is...

It would be okay like for Lego Club.

Wouldn't it?

Or Craft Club.

And then it's always set up to do it.

But you've got to stop me from putting any donations.

Because I'm just going to put these 8 bags by here.

And then before you know it we'll have 80 bags.

Right?

And then before you know it we'll have 800 in there.

But there's also another shop.

Half price boys.

It'll be half price.

Because we're on offer.

Oh yeah.

Half price teller.

So yes.

What was I waffling on?

Around the corner.

And it's...

That little bit fooser isn't it?

So that I don't...

Philip full of donations.

A little bit further out of the way.

You know the one I mean.

Do you remember the...

That's the one I like.

I don't know.

Perhaps I'll give him a ring.

The problem is we're waiting.

We're playing the waiting game now.

Because...

They're all still under the illusion that the economy is going to recover.

It's not.

Waiting on Blackwood to go bang.

Tried to get in before it goes bang.

And said to him.

This is what we're going to pay you.

And that's it.

And they were like.

No chance.

You know.

The casino.

2,800 a month.

And you've got to pull a carpet up.

Because the carpet is ruined.

Yourself.

The casino left.

Because they went bankrupt.

Off your head like.

And you've got River Island closing shops and asking for a rent discount.

You've got Claire's accessories going.

I told my mother.

She better.

She better.

Triple her.

Cota.

On the accessories.

Come on.

You need to work faster.

You've had your pacemaker.

Come on.

Now that Claire's accessories is gone.

I'd like their twirly pods.

You know their twirly pods.

If anybody is going to get Claire's next one.

Go in there and tell them.

I'm desperate for those twirly pods.

Yeah.

So I'd like one.

Over Blackwood Waikafili Way.

For Craft Club.

And the rest of it.

We can do other stuff in there as well.

Like we've had mothers before.

We that do like fitness things and stuff.

And we can run free clubs then.

Can't we?

And a warehouse.

And a furniture shop.

Somewhere in the middle.

You know.

Somewhere in the middle of everywhere.

I've got an idea of where would a good one.

But they're still.

They're still working in there.

The owner is still working in there.

You know.

But I'm like I have told him.

I've told every customer that knows him.

Go in there and tell him I'm after a shop.

For the right price.

So.

Yeah.

We need a furniture shop.

I'm hoping to get Dawn down to Caerphilly this week.

To do the books.

All the novels are priced now.

There's a few.

I found a stash of them in the toilet.

Honestly I could use every bit of space.

But all the novels are done.

Ready for Dawn to do the bookshelves.

So we're ready to rock and roll down there.

And then I can see.

Now Dawn bank on this now guys.

I can see.

If I can take another bag or two down then.

But she's got autobiographies.

Hard books.

And she's got novels.

And she's only got three shelves.

Because that's the only room we've got see.

And like all the non-fiction books.

Are all in the front of the shopping boxes.

Or in the windows and stuff.

Because they sell really quick.

It's the novels.

That we've had to reintroduce this way.

So we've got lots.

Lots to plan.

I also had this through.

Right.

Which I think we're going to start rolling out as well.

This one came off fair share this day.

Bloody Charlie and Bloody Paterson.

Up to no good luck.

Pretending she was doing bloody fundraising.

It's coming in her name.

So I've had to contact them.

To tell them that she isn't here anymore.

And to stop using our bloody address.

But they...

So we're going to send out forms like this.

For people to start donating.

I don't think I put 35.90 and 150.

That's a lot.

That's a lot to ask people for.

I know that's what people need.

But that's a lot.

But what I didn't like about this form.

I've already spoke to Royal Mail.

To see how much it would be to deliver.

Because we're talking...

We're talking...

A thousand at a time of these.

Would be put out.

Ten thousand even.

Do you know what I mean?

It's not like...

A couple of streets.

And there's no way I can post with my knee.

I wouldn't mind doing the posting.

But I can't with my knee.

But they've got debit my card.

Well I wouldn't like putting my card number on one of these.

Because who does it?

Who is dealing with that in your shop?

Like I know.

If I add somebody's card number there.

I would write it down.

And then I'd put it through a cross shredder.

That crosses it both ways.

And I would have to dispose of that professionally.

Like I wouldn't just give it away on Marketplace.

Or take it on a tip.

Because it's got card numbers on.

But you know.

If I add ten thousand of these to process.

I'm going to need help with that.

How do you know somebody doesn't use that card number?

If it's a direct debit form.

For like three pound a month.

Something like that.

Then you take that to your bank.

Don't you?

Is that right in my thinking?

But this I wouldn't like.

To be sending out with our name attached to it.

With people's card details.

Because what if somebody else picked it up.

What if someone.

When that was put back in the post.

What if somebody else intercepted it.

As well.

When she went.

I had loads of stuff.

Like scope.

Mine.

T-shirts.

Because she was doing sponsored this.

But she never run a day in her life.

She never bloody walked fast.

Didn't stop bloody eating.

She literally applied for loads of sponsorship forms.

And stuff like that.

And I said don't you do any sponsorship.

You know.

Under different people.

Like I've got to go to customers.
