Recycling

In preparation for visitors, I've finally taken down the horrible infra-red heater in the shower room and replaced it with a fan job.  The usual list of snags, eg the lack of equipment to dig out a recess for the junction box, but Martyn having spotted in Bricomarché a surface-mounted box that matched the junction box, we're finally in business.  When we replace something serviceable but surplus to requirements, we sometimes take it to the déchetterie, but more often just leave it beside the communal dustbins at the end of the street.  We've 'recycled' lots of stuff that way, including a UHF telly aerial and mast.  The infra-red heater went out there at 13:00.  When I took the garbage down at 14:00 it had gone.
