Derelict?

No idea if this is derelict but it was eye catching in the sunlight with the wind ruffling the plastic! Had just come out of the scrapyard after taking a rather rusty bath and a very prettily painted toilet - one of which I thought finally, I could blip for the DerelictThursday!
An odd but good day - dog walking x2 as now my other neighbour has flu and her dog has returned to her as her son is going away and can't look after it anymore, and her other son hates dogs! ( Other 2 live too far away to help!) Unfortunately  she fell when getting out of her chair and crawled to the door and lay in the sunlight for 2 hours until her son appeared - she had called me but I was either already out or didn't hear her. She seems unscathed from this though and we had a chat with her dog on my lap and her collapsed on her bed! 
Was supposed to be meeting a friend for lunch - but she called saying she had contractions and wasn't sure if it was Braxton Hicks or labour - as i still have not heard anything I guess it was labour - fingers crossed all is well.
Trip to Waitrose via garden centre and Aquarium- they found my earring I lost last visit, but guy serving had no idea where the person who found it put it! He also didn't get through second round of army testing - he was a bit gutted. Went to get locusts and saw these two cornsnakes hooking tails! Another customer told me they were mating - he didn't let the baby he was carrying watch!! They kept wrapping their tails together, heads side by side completely motionless - no kissing, not even tongues!  
I was looking for a  Chimonanthus in the garden centre as per Chole's blip - but no luck, but did find a Quince and winter flowering sweet Honeysuckle instead!!!
So home, dropped off grapes for sick neighbour, walked dog, up to allotment, cleaned and put chickens to bed, used Petzl  headlight to guide me to car and back with wheelbarrow and bag of mixed corn, headed  home once more at 6.45! Blip done, time to eat!!! 
P.S. Link to mating snakes and bathing snake here plus a Hypo Gecko, lizards and a fine toilet and rusty bath!!!
