Today I began by packing the smaller, usual bags, finding that I had plenty of room. Marnie, a fellow regular volunteer, arrived and started packing the larger contents meant for isolating university students. Her jealousy at my simpler task continued until she found a pile of Farmfoods bags, which were marginally bigger but enough to make the job bearable. By the time I was switched to the uni parcels, the collection had reduced so I had to search through the random pile to find other oversized bags.
