Yes lesson learned, I will now write down my list and he can choose from it LOL
Spent yesterday clearing out office, the most horrible room in our house. We moved the sofa bed out and have managed to score the walls and chip the paintwork on the way up the stairs. DH hates organising, he finds it a waste of time, thus it was slow, very slow because I asked him what almost everything was being kept for...............he keeps rubbish..............anyway we are well on our way to decluttering (properly this time)
Today, once office finished, we are onto the understairs cupboard!!!!!!!!!! I may not return
Re pennies - Absurd&Ludicrous are able to take money out of my bank when the banks are closed.............how clever. Our business account doesn't seem to be able to do that! So there is no facility to put money in A&L but nothing to stop them taking money out! Pennies a bit all over the place as we have had no payments from any shops, I am thinking it is due to the snow, but they would need to hurry up!LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.

Well done on the de-cluttering, my BF is painfully slow when it comes to throwing things out and gets quite stressed, then angry, then sulky, so we have to give up
There is a kitchen cupboard full of rubbish that he won't throw away, then he moans he has no space in the kitchen :rotfl:
Need to get him sorting out under the stairs, as currently there is a broken kettle, TV unit, TV, box of floppy disks and thats all I can seeMortgage Aug 12 £165K, Aug 19 £0

good luck in the understairs cupboard. I still remember the horror that was my parents. I think my sister has the best idea, they've storage in theirs but haven't closed it in so you have to make an attempt to keep it tidy (not much of one though).
I've decided that i will be doing some more decluttering next year, i'm tired of things having no homes.0
