  • One skip? Try a scrap bulk haulage trailer :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. Mind you we have a great plan with the conifers as paying someone is not a plan at the moment - lets just cut the sides off them as it never growns back - I so have the urge to go outside with the clippers but I am in my smart gear as I have an exam to invigilate, do you think they would notice if I wasn't there :o.

    It took more than one large builders skip just to do the garage when we moved house.....you can imagine how many I would have required had I done my "clear out and be done with it" idea!

    As it is, it is still remarkable how much I can find to go in the Charity shop bags that come around......! And that is before I have even started being ruthless - it is just from "routine" sorting!

    Pickle Towers has seen levels of decluttering henceforth unknown this past fortnight.

    What a pity none of it was from Pickle's bedroom. :o :rotfl:

    Not much in the way of decluttering done last night as was wiped out! I did cook a lovely lamb dinner though, and at least keep the place tidy, so that will do for now. My cleaner called to apologise for not venturing into DS's room when she comes over each week :eek: I did tell her that on a health and safety basis, I would not expect her to head in there, but it does somewhat make the point about his room vs the rest of the house :o

    Payday tomorrow - phew! Am having my hair cut today and need to pay a couple of different lots of car parking money so will be cutting things fine, cashwise, but all will be well in the morning!

    Have a good day x
