I don't feel the slightest bit guilty about using unwanted charity bags for rubbish. On the rare occasion that I want to chuck out something that's still fit to wear/use I take it to one of the charity shops that I choose to support (they don't have the resources to put thousands of bags through people's doors).

I feel a bit guilty if I use them for rubbish so they pile up and then I chuck them in the recycling bin. Stupid I know! We get some from people who make out they're a charity. There's a bit of small print on them which says that they make a donation to charity. Amount or percentage isn't mentioned.
Trading standards had to have a big crack down on them around this way due to the lack of clarity of exactly how much actually went to charity.
Can I use the 'Ask Alan' question to ask him why he won't admit that promoting plastic grass is unethical?

I'm getting aeriated about the way that the word 'journey' is being used these days as in 'a learning journey'. It probably started when passengers became customers and all kinds of people, in addition to vampire slayers, became stakeholders. I hereby dub it beancounterspeak.
I revoke my earlier grumpiness. The builder next door has offered to help rebuild my front step on Friday after I was telling him about the problems I was having with it. I've got the gear to fix it but I've been putting it off as it's a tricky job to do on my own. He's not even going to charge me.
