    27. More cat food to local cat charity
    28. A clinique makeup caddy, relocated to use at work to store bits in my desk
    29. Loads of recycling bits from bathroom (loo rolls, toothpaste packaging etc)
    30. Lidl crisp packet from lounge (ahem..) and it's packaging is recyclable, fab

    That's another 5 things gone and all mainly recycled woo-hoo! Nearly (ish) a third of the way to the target. :A
    :) Declutter 300 things in December challenge, 9/300. Clear the living room. Re-organize storage
