Right, can I zoom up a bit - 20 Nov 2025 - (1,212 words) - Jaynes Baby Bank
Right, can I zoom up a bit?
Can I wedge you?
Like you'll wedge for the inside of my labels.
I just went next door now.
Alright, get some sugary stuff.
I feel a bit dippy.
Alright, and uh, come back with a bag in the doorway.
Somebody's left a bag and ran off.
I feel really bad.
I had a lady come up earlier as well and she had bags and I think she'd been down there and they were like, they probably said no, take it to Jane.
But I don't think, I don't know if anybody in Caerphilly is taking donations to be honest.
You know, perhaps we should write a list of who is taking donations.
However, a lady has come forward, one of our followers, and said she's got a big garage, a big garage if we'd like to use it for storage.
And I'm like, I think you might regret telling us that.
So she said, no, no, no.
I said, yeah, I know, but we would fill it by the end of June.
Shall we commandeer this lovely lady's garage?
Or shall we wait till after Christmas?
I mean, I'm more than happy for the lady to start sorting the donations there.
That's fine if she wants to do that, but somebody wants to help her.
I don't know, but I just conscious of taking over somebody's garage now as well, because it will be rammed.
You know, it will be by two weeks maximum.
Right.
Anyway, this abandoned bag.
There we are.
It's got pockets.
It's a George.
It's a pound.
It's a long black dress, pass knees, cover front bum and back bum.
And it is a size small.
You might get away with it if you're a small 14.
Okay.
It's a pound if you want it.
Buy it online and I'll put it aside for you.
If not, take your chances by coming in.
Right.
Skinny jeans.
Oh, they're nice.
Look, can you see?
Yeah, they got a size 12 M&S pound.
Don't mess around you guys.
Don't mess around in a baby bank, guys.
I could do it like a Taylor's doll now as well.
Couldn't I have put the clothes on when I'm showing it to you?
This is Paramore.
Oh, Paramore.
Usually I'd stick it on a pound rail, but we got absolute tons.
Vintage Paramore.
Pound.
Pound.
Nine to ten years.
Inside out.
Slim.

I'll put their number there because they're the children's.

Stretchy waistband.
Elasticated.

I could do QVC now.

Fill a bag for two pound.
I'm trying to do all these offers to keep it fresh.
And then the volunteers are like, oh my God, what offer is on?
I'm like, oh, I did not make it up.
What offer does the customer want?
11 to 12.
School clothes.
50p.
School trousers.
Oh, it's a leavers jumper.
It's a leavers.
So it's probably a pound shop job.
That one would be, I expect, because it's got everybody's names on it.
So somebody might have it for like painting or something, or backer cars, an emergency one.
Small 12 short, sorry, not small.
Super Shaper 12.
Elasticated waist.

Skinny.
Skinny jeans.

Can't get it off.
And we've got eight to nine jeans.
Eight to nine news.
I've got another Christmas jumper.
Oh, that's cool.
Look, it's got like, oh, I don't know.
So it was a dinosaur, but it's not.
It's got like antlers, but the wrong amount of antlers.
On the next jumper.
Next, that's a bit weird for you.
I'm not going to lie.
That's a weird one.
Nine years, guys.
Nine years.
Some sort of crazy horns on the side of it.
If you see anything you like, let us know.
I'm yearning about four.
I got to go at four, guys, because I've got to go and have a flu jab.
I'm supposed to be on the priority list.
And of course, when I change doctors, they didn't put me on there.
Don't matter.
That one's a little bit marked extra large, but we still put him in the pound, because somebody might have him for work or just around the garden studio.
Oh,
I've got a nice coat.
Tooie size 14.
Nice.
Like a bronzy silvery.
Coats usually go for 10, guys.
All right.
Well, 10.
Oh, the bag.
I couldn't salvage him.
Eight to nine years.
What do you know about this one?
Is it a footy one?
Oh, it's an adidas one.
I'll have to check that.
I don't know.
Or 10, 10 pounds, say, because a footy one, 10, five, if we like you.
Five, if we like you.
All right.
A footy one, you type of thing.
We always do well with the football stuff, don't we, guys?
Oh, we've got Santa, Christmas, Christmas, ultimate, or ultimate Christmas.
Santa, yo ho ho.
Florence and Fred, eight to nine years.
Bobble intact.
I think I got school trousers.
School trousers.
Oh, no tag.
Oh, no, they are.
They're very, two of these are.
I'm very, you know.
It says two piece sets.
So, oh, perhaps it was two pairs of trousers.
11 to 12.
They don't look okay to me.
Perhaps somebody just had a growth spurt, didn't they?
You know, if they're a bit wider on the waist, go cut them anyway, couldn't they?
William Down went to cinema last night.
What did they watch?
I thought they were going to watch the new Wicked one, but they went to watch something else.
I can't remember but they said it was freezing in the cinema.
The black one was dead as a door post when I dropped him off.
Nine to ten years.
New jeans.
And these look like navy school trousers.
And they are aged 10 to 11.
I'd say they're more navy than black.
Oh, no, no, one more, one more.
Yeah, one more.
One more for luck.
Seven to eight jeans.
A little bit worn on the knees, but you know, doesn't matter.
Not really, not really anymore.
There we are.
Lovely, lovely donations.
Thank you.
No donations allowed after Christmas.
Unless we can decide on a plan with this garage.
But what I'm worried about is filling this poor woman's garage up and frightening them.
Absolutely frightening them.
Because we get a lot of donations in, don't we?
And I mean, we could get a lot of donations in, in an hour.
So, you know, it can be a little bit off-putting.
So anyway, we'll pass my price in.
Can I wedge you?
Like you'll wedge for the inside of my labels.
I just went next door now.
Alright, get some sugary stuff.
