[Panel 1]
[Bell]
It's quite funny
listening to Jaakko and
Nils when they've been
reading Freecycle.
[Ginny]
Well, some of the things
people want to get rid
of are fairly amazing.
[Bell]
True. Even so, they get
pretty het up. Especially
Jaakko about exercise bikes.
[Panel 2]
[Caz]
Well, so do I.
[Elizabeth]
About
EXERCISE BIKES?
[Caz]
No, about perfectly good lawnmowers
and hedge-clippers and strimmers
that they've cut through the flex
so they want to get rid of them.
Why not just rewire them?
[Ginny]
My parents wouldn't know how.
[Panel 3]
[Bell]
MY mum thinks that electricity
leaks into the room out of empty
sockets, and goes around turning
them off.
[Elizabeth]
Oh, come off
it, that's out
of Thurber!
[Bell]
He must have known my
mum, is all I can say.
[Panel 4]
[Elizabeth]
Well, I'm all for it.
[Caz]
What, women who
can't wire a plug?
[Elizabeth]
No, but since freecycle got
going none of us has had to
buy ANY new machines for
the Aged Parents' garden.
