UU a bag of flour and a tin of yeast for tonight's tea so February totals 141/100. I do still have about 1 million bags of flour in the store cupboard though :eek:
. Better find some uses for plain flour to try and even out the stocks.

Another small declutter, cupboard above bed, one old bedding set gone, a pair of tie backs, and the packaging that a quilted throw came in. Been there at least four years oops

Oh, this is a good thread. I REALLY need to join this thread. My flat is a joke - there's only me here but I can rarely find a flat surface.
Am currently fleabaying: one old mobile phone, one Mr T empty bubble bath holder, a cow-shaped desk hoover, and a broken mini-radio shaped like a 1980s boom box. Do not ask me where the latter three came from. As I sit on my sofa to write this I can see: A wooden hippo; a nodding porcelain sheep; three empty gin bottles gathering dust (kept because they are interesting shapes and sizes!) - actually, make that four; and a two foot stuffed duck that sings Camptown Races when you squeeze its wings.
I REALLY need this thread.Grocery challenge September 2022: £230.04/£200

Done - under the bed, the pile in the corner of our room, our shoes, cutlery drawer, misc drawer in the kitchen and the bathroom cupboard! About to do the under sink cupboard. That will be DD1's room completely done, the bathroom done, and the kitchen done.
Need just to go through DD2's clothes (the rest of her room is done), Mine and OH's clothes and his bedside cabinet and then the DVD's and desk and basically all the rooms in the house are ordered and have nothing in them that shouldn't be there.
