I made a start on cleaning up the shed this morning. It is a disgraceful mess, I have no idea where half this stuff even came from! Does engine oil go off? I have a bottle full of oil and I have no idea what it is for or how long it has been there.

It doesn't go off it just loses it's lubrication properties. Toss it if it's been open.

It's hazardous waste - take to recycling centre for proper disposal.

Nah, I'll just add it to my collection of paint tins, gas bottles and fluorescent tubes that I look at occassionally and think "I really must get around to taking those to the recycling centre" before completely forgetting about them again 🤣

Or, with a move likely in the near future I might actually get off my butt and take them.
