I know this is kinda thread is an everyday occurence

just spoke to my dad whos just weighed a few bits of scrap out of his garden and he reckons they were paying £222 a ton? said he got 70 quid for the bits n bobs he had about.
Now my dad is one for exagerating but he knows i have got a trailer full of scrap waiting to go in the next few days so surely he wouldn't be stupid enough to talk bull about that?
sound anywhere near right?
