Four of us GG Yorkies returned to help Andrew at the St Leonard's Hospice donation centre. There wasn't as much to sort this week but we still managed to get through 2 half-filled cages of various items. We found a good selection of hats and Katie enjoyed dressing up French-style along with some very old French road maps!

Ellie spotted a funny label on one of the boxes:

This box is labelled Knickers and Booby Holders!

I also unpacked a box which was labelled "Boob discs"!! We are still wondering what they might be, but there definitely weren't any in the box - just clothes.

We were just about to leave when another delivery of items arrived, but Andrew said we could leave that to the volunteers tomorrow, otherwise they'd have nothing to do.

Thanks to Katie for the title pun.
