    At least 30 software disks chucked in the bin as we no longer need them. Ive got a bag full of computer related leads and wires to go through.
  • Finally fitted the new DVD player which is nice and small, getting rid of the larger (broken) DVD/Video player and associated leads (of which there seem to be loads!

    Just chucked out an old iron, two old coats (far too tatty for the charity shop) and a bag full of random clothes hangers that were sitting in the spare room annoying me for over a year.

    One of the coats was an expensive gift which is probably why I hung on to it for so long but it was all crumpled and the pockets had torn so no point keeping it under the bed any longer. Goodbye useless clutter!
  • I'm really feeling in the mood to eBay today, so getting loads photographed to list this evening. Am off on holiday tomorrow, it's definitely a well deserved break. I've decided I want to "declutter" some body weight as well, so will get to that when I get back! Still finding endless amounts of stuff to sell, no idea where it is all hiding really.

    Hello

    Got a bag of too-big-clothes ready to be collected by the charity people tomorrow. Lots of recycling sorted and general household rubbish ready to go tomorrow (collection day)
    Break up on Friday so hoping to get lots of decluttering done over the next 2 weeks. Plan is to start at the top of the house, DS's loft room and work my way down. If I get the bedrooms and bathrom done I'll be pleased.

    Have fun everyone

    Have not got so many outs after the weekend although I went through DD's clothes with her. We have ended up with a large pile for ragging which I have removed the buttons from already. I have a large pile of items which I need to wash, iron and list on eBay ready for the next FLW. She has some nice clothes there. Have replaced some of her old clothes although looking at her this afternoon, DH has bought her blouses which don't fit her :( there's another argument waiting!
    DH has caught up with all of the washing this weekend and it's all been line dried, lovely :). Better get my eBay item posted tomorrow so will wrap it now. Ttfn..
