Hi inaminute, dont forget about housing old mags to places like doc surgery, hospital waiting areas etc. I know I'm always really grateful to read mags when waiting.:j And congrats on all your decluttering, woo hoo. :T

I used to do this but my surgeries have taken all the magazines and toys out of the waiting room because of "swine flu and germs". I used to love reading them whilst waiting

oooh how can we do this I'd love to send then some bits out to make them smile

Hi
Relative in REME so send to him and friend who's husband is a nurse out there.
Post the question on the armed forces board and see if anyone can point yoou in the right direction. Otherwise, if you have an army barracks nearby ring them . I know there are a number of charities sending boxes out every week.
I "aquire" things from hotels when i stay there - have about 15 little soaps, still in packaging, lots of sachets of bubble bath/shower gel, and shampoo.

I started doing this back in January and I'm sad to say that I've not been doing well at all with it. Anyway, I'm not going to mope over it. I just wanted to say that starting tomorrow I'll be back doing the decluttering and streamlining what I've got.

I'll start today, actually, with these:

OUT: recycling to the recycle bin, 3 bags of tissues to the main bin and one old kettle out. I've got a few bits to take to a charity shop and will take these on Monday.

IN: Probably post and maybe some haircutting scissors if I can find any.
