Morning all, dnak and dreary here this morning.

Pookie_lou, you definitely had a busy day yesterday and today sounds like it will be busy but enjoyable.

Morning All
Got up early (for me, for a Sunday!) and got one lot of washing on the line and tidying up all done. just need to do the bathroom and kitchen and hoover in the front room and that will probably do for today!
I really need someone to kick me up the arris if I am honest. There was a jumble sale yesterday locally and my intention was to sort out some stuff and take it along so I could get rid of it from the house, but then I couldn't be bothered and am regretting it now because this house is so small we could do with as much space as we can really. My daughter has suggested we do a car boot sale instead when the weather is warmer, which is a good idea but I still have to store the stuff until then.
I also have stuff to take to the tip but haven't mustered up the enthusiasm for that either. We intend to move at some point so it would be good to have that sort of mess out of the way and would be one less thing to do when the time comes.
I thought having my own car would allow me to do this sort of thing at my own pace, which it does, but it seems my own pace is slower than a snails.OD [STRIKE] £2600 [/STRIKE] £0 :j Loan [STRIKE]£9500.00[/STRIKE] £0 :j Car [STRIKE]£3150[/STRIKE] £0 :j Moving Costs [STRIKE]£1300[/STRIKE] £0 :j Savings £1150 :j

Tenmah, sometimes I get overwhelmed by the clutter and untidiness of this place but then I think to myself we are warm, well fed and basically happy so I just do little bits at a time.
With 3 kids we generate loads of clothes and I used to bag it all up for charity but the last couple of weeks I bagged up what was around and took it to one of those cash for clothes outlets. Didn't get much but got something and it was also out of the house.
Can you arrange for your council to lift stuff, ours does for large and heavy stuff?0
