As usual the jobsworths would not let me skipdive for these goodies.
Why didn't you ask her for the music gear before it was put in the skip? Until it goes into the skip it is her property to do with what she likes. When anything is put in the skip(s) legally it becomes their property.


As to my task with sorting out a couple of thousand CDs, I have finished with the rock, pop, blues, jazz and folk, and am now part-way through all things "classical", which spans the period 12th century through to the 21st century.
