Scrap happy

While rearranging my big cupboard, I found a boxful of silk samples, glued to cards. They took some careful getting off. When this street had a number of small garment factories, 20 or so years ago, you'd sometimes get treasure like this in the bags of offcuts they put out on the street for the garbage collection in the evening -- just when I was passing by on the way home from work. Mostly it was polyester rubbish, but sometimes there would be "potentially useful" things. I've had these for all that time, and now they'll finally be used in JQs.
