Well done - the whole of your clutter gone in one swoop! :rotfl: Hope the move goes smoothly for you.
I've fallen off the wagon a bit lately, just haven't felt very motivated - the cold weather is not doing me any favours as it makes me just want to curl up with a hot drink and keep warm.
Anyway. today's OUT is the recycle bin - hooray, it has not been emptied since before Christmas!
Will try and do something a bit more constructive later after I've finished getting sidetracked on the MSE forums oops!:DThrifty Gifty February make £20 challenge £21.05/£20.0 -
inaminute really sorry to hear that, it sounds like it was a shock to you. i hope something else comes along quickly for you

Only problem is Janebo.... the removals men have to stick it all back into the new house. Im glad Ive had a major decluttering over the last 6 - 12 months though as I know that nothing coming with us needs throwing out, its all good stuff!0

Welsh Totster - Good luck with the move. Remember the kettle and mugs go in last and come out first;-).
Hope things work out well for you inaminute.

Quite a good day for me... took the massive pile of stuff from the loft to the tip. Tonight I am going to aim to find 3 more items to recycle/chuck.
Out:- 3 parcels to the post office
- three bags of old school books (recycled)
- old batteries (recycled)
- lots of wood from old bunk beds (recycled)
- 2 pairs rollerblades (charity shopped)
- 2 old pictures (charity shop)
- 3 bags of old dust sheets/textiles (tip)
- 1 bag of misc rubbish (wheelie bin)
- money bags (so that i can pay my pennies into the bank)
- nothing else - miracle! :j
So I tried to find 3 items to ditch... I found more than I bargained for! Out this eve went...- hotel hair gel sachet
- 1 pot body cream (irritates my skin)
- lipgloss (gone off)
- pile of old receipts and bank statements shredded
- a few old erasers
- rusty trolley coin
- green cardie well past its best
- 4 dvds
- 4 cds
- broken ornament
ok so all of those are only small items, but the little things add up.0 -
Sorry to hear of the redundancy inaminute, hope all goes well for the move welsh totster.
Took a pile of books to a girl at work today for her DD, my DD actually got rid of some!
Freecycle stuff seems to be on the move, hopefully will all be gone by the weekend and I will have re-claimed a large part of my garden.
