Flashy, why didn't ti say sumat sooner,
I took two up tut tip last week.
I would try them first they have a dammed big
container full, probably let you take your pick.
I'll bet they all work, and just need a set top box.

Neil, shut up

Oh yes they do, some one had thrown some plastic plant pots in the skip when I took some garden waste up, I said can I have them, help your self was the reply.
Less for them to get rid of, its called recycling.

It's proper recycling - part of "reduce, reuse, recycle"

I'm not surprised they let you take something that would just end up in landfill, though. Where you leave the Great Harwood recycling centre, there's a tally of the percentage recycled last month.

If you take away something that's bound for landfill, it helps that percentage. If you take away a telly, or anything else that can be recycled, it hinders the percentage.

I've got a telly available - still works, good quality. Has surround sound and a nice VCR. It's too big for a bedroom though - 27", and its nearly that fat too because it's an old CRT.
