half a tin of quality street - binned, the ones people don't like are left and they seemed to be the ones there were the most of unfortunately. Good job I only paid £3 for it.

51 books in a box to try and sell to our local 2nd hand book shop next week (leftovers to charity shop - promise!)
Small carrier bag of bits and a giant cuddly polar bear I received for xmas (I'm 22 what do i need a giant polar bear for?) to charity shop going tomorrow
Tip run tomorrow - sooooo much glass and 2 bin bags of textile recycling

Got my cash4clothes bag picked up today - it was a bit more of a mission than I anticipated to fill half a bag so I had to get friends and family to chip in. Not worth an awful lot, probably would've got more for it CB-ing it but I can't hold with it hanging around until spring. If it's going to go it's going asap!

However I am collecting stuff for Music Magpie as it is usually worth it. I can now hide that bag in my very de-cluttered wardrobe and not think about it - woooooo.

I'm impressed with everyone's chuck a 100 updates - spurring me on

2. 2 maps for CS
3. empty cardboard box ready for tip run over weekend
4. pile of shredding done and bin emptied ready for next lot tomorrow
5. Recycling bin emptied

Not sure what I will manage tomorrow as I am usually shattered after work but I suppose that even 1 more item would be better than nothing! Will be back tomorrow then
