  1. We’re getting something right in #resourcerecovery
    Today I loaded up a carload of unwanted household items, car batteries, #ewaste and old paint tins. In half an hour I had offloaded almost all of it at #Vinnies and the local #recycling centre, relishing the space released at home and the knowledge that most of it will be used again. No fee. No mining. No #landfill 😊

  3. Vinnies & ANU propose lifting 590,000 people out of poverty by raising JobSeeker to 90% of the age pension fully funded by reining in unfair super tax breaks.
    No-one earning under $100k loses.
    3 million people win.
    Budget neutral. Morally urgent.
    What are we waiting for?

  5. @MostlyHarmless In a way that's what #Vinnies the charity does every year in mid-winter here in Australia. Corporate CEOs sign up, sleep rough, and raise money for the homeless 👍

  7. Good morning tooters. I’ve been awake since 4.30am, up & about since 5.30am - thanks #BonnyTheDogNextDoor - I decided she needs her own hashtag as she is quite the presence 🫤.
    It’s very mild this morning, already about 10c & heading to 15c, overcast with rain around but not in my area atm.
    It’s my Vinnies day today & I’ve been going through my jackets & coats. I have three to take in I including my Drizabone that I never wear so no point in hanging on to it.
    Hope everyone has a great day, hope the sun shines for you & brings you some warmth. #WinterVibe #Vinnies #Opshop #Volunteer

  8. Good morning tooters. These foggy mornings seem to make it darker for longer, I don’t mind that as I stay asleep longer too 😁. I can’t see the tree at the end of my street again, it’s just a very faint darkening in that area - or maybe I’m imagining it as I know it’s there 🤷🏼‍♀️. It’s a chilly 3c, feels like 1c & heading to just 13c. The sun doesn’t look like it will break through today unfortunately.
    It’s #Thursday which makes it my Vinnies day & I really need to get in the shower & start my day. I’m super snug & warm & not keen to move but I’m going to - check you all later 😊.
    Have a good day everyone, stay warm. #WinterVibe #Vinnies

  9. Recently @laurachiarelloarts made me aware of #InternationalKissingDay: mastodon.online/@laurachiarell

    Here's my late tribute to the occasion.

    Boots, jeggings & wrap blouse from #BuyNothing. Art deco style inlaid acrylic earrings from #Vinnies. Ring & umbrella from #SaveTheChildren. Singlet from either BN or the charity where I volunteer. I made the cuff. Scarf from ages ago. Bag & necklace were gifts. And let's not mention that the black flower clip was from Shein 😖

  10. Good morning my tooting pocket friends. Isn’t 6am quite dark now, the seasons are changing.
    It’s Vinnies day today & I have to drop my car in to get new brakes on my way in. So I’ll be walking the last 1-2km. Then back again to pick the car up at lunchtime. This will be the most walking I’ve done in a long time, so hope my knee holds up 🤞🏼. I have faith in my capability though. It’s a lovely cool morning heading to 31c this afternoon although the times I’ll be walking will be relatively pleasant.
    Wishing everyone a great day whatever you’re doing - keep cool everyone. #AussieSummer #Walking #Vinnies

  11. G’day tooting friends. I feel like I’ve hardly been online today - maybe because I haven’t 😁. Vinnies day today but didn’t last more than a couple of hours before I started to feel my back, still got a few things done that needed doing.
    I had a phone call from a friend today. She asked if I wanted to help her clean a house for a friend of hers who is selling it, cash in hand. She’s now not very happy with me for saying I didn’t want to! Part of my reasoning is cleaning a whole house for sale is damned hard work & I considered my back & my leg & the fact I really don’t care about money even though yes - it would be nice. It takes me twice as long to clean my own place nowadays. She doesn’t seem to understand & thinks I should want to do it anyway 🤷🏼‍♀️.
    Apart from that little issue - I’ve quite enjoyed my day. #Thursday #Vinnies

  12. Good morning tooting friends, it’s raining - ☔️ 🌧️ yaaay, still a bit too warm & will be an awful humid day, but the rain is definitely welcome.

    Going back to my volunteer job at Vinnies today & while I know it’ll only be for a couple of hours & I’ll be in the moon boot, I’m really pleased to be able to go again. My leg still gets aches & pains, especially in the knee but day by day it’s improving & I can sit cross legged again for a short time. Onwards & upwards 😃. #Vinnies #Volunteer #Healing

  13. Did the annual Hoges family #Vinnies #christmas shop today. Love getting second hand stuff for under the tree and giving money to charity at the same time.
