    New top from M & Co, cost me nothing as was kindly given some vouchers by OH's Mum.

    OH has bought back five boxes of stuff from his Mum's loft - aaaagh - I hadn't even finished sorting out the last lot! The spare room is getting riduculously full again. :mad:

    Out

    Book, pair of shorts, suit jacket and two pairs of boots to the charity shop

    Four library books back to library. Have noticed I have at least six books I haven't read in the bookcase, and three of them don't belong to me. So will read those first and return them to their rightful owners!

    Pending


    Have no more storage space in wardrobe or drawers for clothes or shoes now. There is a huge pile of clothes to be sorted out in the spare room, so I want to have another charity shop bag ready to take by next Saturday.
