Not all problems can be solved with triangles

Monday and back to school, now on hot school dinners instead of packed lunches.
Afterwards, Bud and I went to the skip outside the back of Debenhams Commercial Road to load up on free wood for the bonfire party this coming Saturday. Some of it was quite naily and screwy but then so am I.

 He had already brought back 3 loads of triangles from work which have been my favourite bonfire fuel since I was 2. Also known as pallet corner strengtheners, they can be easily broken by any pet adult you have to hand, making a light yet throwable item, ideal for fire training in the 2-3s.
 
Directly behind me in this picture (Feb '09) are 4 sheaves of "triangles". Also visible: a pallet, some duckboards, sticks from the garden, random bits of wood I pick up from people's front gardens and a nappy box, sadly revealing that although I'd been doing bonfires for 6 months I still couldn't go to the toilet.

Hi! I'm glad you want to comment, for I like messages from humans.
I'm sorry about the word recognition thing, because if it's not on there, I get 25 robot spams for payday loans per day into the Google spam folder.
