Had a little guilt spurt last night and got through load of paperwork, receipts mainly, by borrowing OH's laptop and updating my spreadsheets whilst watching the apprentice.

Shredder half full and a bin full of paper recycling too, some stuff in the filing tray and I can see some of my desk :T Will continue next weekend.

A few more cosmetic products used up empties in bin/recycling.

Bits for work tea and coffee club out again this morning after getting them on Saturday too.

Hopefully nothing in other than possibly some post today.

BACK IN -
the paper recycling that the refuse collectors decided to leave (collecting everyone else's in my street - must be my choice of reading material!)

IN
Birthday presents (such kind friends, many thanks to them!)
A barbecue (that's why it poured with rain all weekend - my fault)
Lots of chairs

OUT
A couple of large electrical items on freecycle - had lots of replies, so hopefully the people I've chosen will collect. I was able to eliminate a good handful of replies simply by ruling out anyone who couldn't say please/thank you!

My beloved old car (weeps silently) - nearly as old as I am!

Do you think that's why they're called refuse collectors?
