Freddie´s "Q" & Quite Some Finds


It´s plain amazing - I always wanted one of these - but "luckily" it was too bulky, so I left it for someone else.

Really, going somewhere these days... it´s a treasure hunt!!!


Why buy anything, it´s all for free!!

 
Memories of that you can find here... brrr... and I did it again!
I finally, too, was able to bring my books and clock to the phone booth, yipeee, it´s open again!!!
It was closed for over a year (and there is a guy here who collects and then SELLS free stuff. I rather want to leave my books and such for students for free, not for sale - I was a student myself, I think they enjoy and not sell. And give it along for free later.).

 
This time I just took pics... but there is more to come!

 Freddie (from the book Freddie Mercury A to Z):


 

And Henry 🦁



No need to report to the police - the people put their stuff outside for free!
For others to take and enjoy, and Queen sure were a bunch who loved to share their talents, too!

You find some really great stuff.

Iris Flavia said...

Yes, crazy, huh!
I also give, please don´t forget that...

Tom said...

...we have run out of space to story stuff!

My name is Erika. said...

You do find the most interesting things on the sidewalk Iris. That is the beauty of being a city dweller. You could do a whole art journal with scraps of things you see. Happy September 2!

I can't believe some of the things put out for free Iris, very cool if they go a good home. Most of the things I don't need anymore go to the Good Samaritans. Love Freddie 💜

RedPat said...

You spot so many nice things out for free!

So cool to find free stuff, and also give away stuff to others for free. A true sharing economy!

I hate that they get free and then sell it. I'd rather give away too.

I like those lions.

Giving stuff away seems to be a pleasing trend of late. I am all for it. Recently we have put quite a few items on Kijiji, and all people have to do is pick them up. We do not try to sell them.

What a great idea being able to give things away like that. Sometimes people will put old sofas and chairs on the roadside for anyone to pick up, but usually we have to donate things to the local charity shop or take them to the dump, otherwise there would be endless complaints about "making our street look untidy."

Not much on the streets here lately. The last thing I saw, a few months ago, was a plastic potty, shaped like a toilet, used for toddler toilet training I suppose. It was very clean, so anyone who needed could take it, but it sat there so long eventually the council rubbish collection picked it up.

Iris Flavia said...

Tom, take an empty parcel-thing and give it away :-)
Just write: "For free" and make people happy.

Erika, oh, yes! I got another one yesterday! (Ingo wasn´t too happy, he thinks it´s icky. Post to come...)

____

Grace, yes, tomorrow the good Krups will make fresh orange juice for brekkie :-)
I always take a backpack now 🤣

____

RedPat, ... "Corinna" makes people nice.

____

Spare Parts and Pics, yes, I love we all are so friendly in this "pandemic"! Not only with pressies, but in general!

____

Padre, I have two oranges and a Krups that I found on the street here. Beam over for that!

___

Jeanie, yes. He has a carrier even 😒

____

William, they say thank you and won´t do no harm!

____

David, that´s even better cause when it rains... mimimi... ruined.

____

Margaret, yes, that happens here, sadly, too. you think... dump it!
But then.. it´s 5 km and costs money, too. What if you don´t have a car.

Most things are nice, though!

River, ohhhh. I´d like a pic of that! Cute - and clever! - idea.
