    Dead micro safely deposited and OH BROUGHT BACK the bluddy innards:mad: I despair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    His reason behind this was they might be useful - for what???? New micro will have its own set of racks, trays, turntable thing. Well later today they are going in his precious shed which he is in now decluttering for installation of whatever it is we need for solar panels which are happening next week. In that case there will be a 'space' for the oh so useful micro racks :)

  • Hi all,

    I have been finally unearthing the conservatory today and we have decluttered the following:

    2 bags of rubbish - bin
    1 large bag of ebay packaging - fc
    2 pairs of shoes - bin

    We have also put a nest of four tables that I am not quite ready to part with into the loft.
    :D Thanks to MSE, I am mortgage free!:D
  • Bag of old scarfs/socks etc in the car boot to go to the cloth recycling point next week when I go past it for work. The bag (an old rucksack with numerous holes in) can also be recycled hurrah!
    Found a few bits for the charity shop bag, and some rubbish that was lurking in the bottom of the wardrobe (shoe boxes and the bags they came in. Why would I keep them in the first place, I wonder?
  • Hi all
    i have shredded a load of paperwork and taken some card to be recycled; that makes my total

    Ditch 100 in February 9/100

    I was supposed to do my eb@y listings tonight but I haven't done the photos and it's too cold in the garage where everything is. But, I also spotted a cot top changer that can go. We don't have a cot any more and I'm a meanie and lay the tot on the floor to change her (or she stands up if we use pull ups).

    Two presents gone this afternoon to the birthday party from hell. About 30 toddlers plus parents plus a bouncy castle crammed into a church hall. Cue tears on more than one occasion. Pretty impressed at my 17mth old holding her own with the bigger kids and actually being able to bounce!
