I have an electric kettle to get rid of. My days of being able to repair such things are over, and as it stands it is a fire hazard. So, I have an electric kettle to get rid of. The "correct" way for me to do so is to drive 5 or 6 miles, sit in a queue with the engine running, or repeatedly restart the engine, dump the kettle, drive home again. (To go to my "local" tip it is 11 or 12 miles, but the next door authority tip is a mere 5 or 6 miles away, with a permanent queue.) I do have three mercury based light bulbs I could get rid of at the same time. And some batteries, but I could get rid of those only three miles away at a place I go to sometimes anyway. Ecofriendly, crackers, or what???
