    Today's been hard tbh. The stuff that's still there is the stuff that it's harder to decide what to do with.

    However I found 2 large suitcases and 1 small one packed with clothes which got sorted through and dumped/charity shopped. As well as a facial tanning thing and some more odd toys.

    What's odd is that we don't seem to have much more room up there, yet it should be cavernous with all the stuff we got rid off. :confused:

    Hopefully tomorrow will see the last of it, I'm losing the will to live now. :rolleyes:

    It does get harder when your faced with real treasure, a chest of treasure too.

    But maybe a smaller more easier to appreciate pile of treasure is better than everything (but maybe more rubbish than 'the good stuff')

    I hope you've enjoyed rediscovering what you loved enough to keep. :)


    BTW, you weren't the 1st to do this

    ........then instead of washing my duvet (we don't do duvets) I would buy a new one. Put it up in the loft for 'spring' and the cycle starts again.(bad times)

    :whistle:
