Does your local tip let you take things you want? - even a backhander to the guys there sometimes work depending upon what you want and will offer. It would be shame to let this 'Last of the real' Hotpoints die. Maybe even keep and eye for someone throwing one out and give them a knock on the door. I was shocked last november when I went to the London Meet up we had where Seamus and myself found a clapped out 12 month old Indesit dumped outside someones house awaiting someone to collect it - im sure one will be knocking around at some poin. That dosnt happen around here as we have to take it ourselves to a local tip. Skips on the otherhand are easy pickings with owners consent. Heres my first ever skip raid - a 1959 Hoover 652 Deluxe that we found while at Mikes a couple of saturdays. The owners had no problems us knocking on the door and asking for it. Rob |
