Just Stuff It

It seems every time I buy some stuff
It comes wrapped up in more stuff
I'm so sick and tired of all this trash
I say "enough's enough"
So tomorrow I'm packing it all in a crate
With a bio-degradable liner
Then slapping it with some postage 
And sending it back to China



Yep--it's all for the contest

G'day Jerry... yeah, it amazes me that something the size of a button arrives in something as big as a shoebox and there becomes the problem. Landcare charges an arm and a leg to take the unwanted remnants - good luck Jerry - Lindsay
