Yesterday, we mistakenly left a white plastic laundry basket on the side of the road , on Ford Rd near the Ford / Hawford roundabout.... late afternoon..
it was filled sundries such as cast iron pots / pans / blue feather hair fascinator.
And fresh rhubarb
Other things too
We’ve just been moving into our new house on the corner of roundabout and the laundry basket was left by mistake on grass verge
It probably looked like it was for free , and happily to as it’s good idea to pop free good things for free but , we would love it back as there are historical and treasured things in it .

Hopefully yours

What's in a name?

Shannon Beynon Reporter from Christchurch Mail
