STREET GLEANER'S GIFTS

BOGROLL: Condition fair LEMONS: Taste great

There is a story here and it goes something like this. COLLECTORS_Pr live in a suburb where there is this guy who walks the streets gleaning/recycling abandoned ‘stuff’ from rubbish skips, street verges, feral plants and so on. For a long time the rumour persisted that he was homeless but not so! Likewise C_Pr’s neighbours, and the Neighbourhood Watch, thought that he might be a little light fingered but not a bit of it!

It took a little while for them to realise that those mysterious things that appeared on their doorstep or just inside the gate were actually left there by ‘The Gleaner’ as a gift. Sometimes these gifts are accompanied with a note if he happens to have a pen and some paper about his person. C_Pr have agreed to document the last 2 of their gifts and the next 9.

CROCINFLATABLE: Condition uninflatable but OK

The note said "this might make some child happy"


And hey, this guy is a very special kind of collector!
