Though I would do a good deed for the Day and remove an old mattress from my cousins house. They have just had a baby and needed the space for the babys room. Loaded it on to the brown church roof rack. Tied it down with some bungies and off I went!

Got to the dump climbed up the ladder and ..................no mattress?

After re tracing my steps I found it on some blokes driveway. He wasnt a happy bunnie! Still he was pleased I came and removed it. Thank heavens it didnt hit any one or anything.

Moral of the story don't do anyone any favours.........Nah  I mean ensure your bungies are in good condition or better still get some decent ratchet straps. :oops:
