Shredding
« on: October 01, 2007, 12:12:46 PM »
Bought this on impluse from Tesco on Saturday. £7.

I am now shredding anything in sight, even stuff that can go safely in the bin. It's soooooooooooooo
satisfying.

Anyone else suffer from this?

Yes. We have three large bin bags of shreddings in the spare room. This is after getting rid of one a week for the last month.  redface:

Nick's been allowed near a shredder?


I'm expecting to read a mournful thread in the not too dim and distant future about how Mrs Nick is in a bad mood because 'someone' managed to shred an important document.  whistle:

Not specifically recycling Wenchy but does Mr Wench have a class pet that needs bedding?

You can compost it as well, providing the paper is not the glossy mag type.

Apparently the shredded bits of paper interfere with the recycling mechanism or something. Those of you that put your shreddings in your recycling bin are causing the whole truck to become unrecyclable.
