In small towns and villages all over Germany, it is time for the anual "junkin'"... This is when locals, clean out their basements and attics,and renovate thier homes, so that they can throw out the old fixtures... streets and sidewalks are lined with all sorts of 'junk/treasures'... And the roads are clogged with Poles in vans, rummaging through it. Its a great system really.... the Germans set the date, advertise it in Poland, and the Poles come and haul away more than half of the junk put out.
The phenomenon reminds me a lot of college... you know, someone puts a chair out, and by morning its gone...
Here is our pile of 'junk'... We are getting new furniture when we move... we have had ours since our marriage, and lets just say, that the light gold is not a good color for kids, pets or husbands.... It has definitely seen better days. Anyway... I thought it would be better to get rid of part now, so that we have less to haul ourselves, when the time comes.
