    I like the idea of the 100 things decluttered. I think that tomorrow I might start having a go at my own 100 things - perhaps I should try and do 100 things a week until we move house in July! Would certainly cut down on the removal costs!!!

    HUMMMMMM this has really got me thinking.

    Ok, tried to declutter and get rid of serious stuff, not just rubbish, but ended up at the local playgroup fun day and ended up bringing back 40 sausages, fruit and veg and rolls to use for lunches next week. All of which I'll make a donation for, but it doesn't help the initial clutter!
