Adventures of a Fat Cat, Old Nag and their Trusty Servant

Piquant_2

Wasn't too bad at the coffee shop instead of spreading vitriol amongst each other they had the opportunity to hate the health and safety inspector! They were all much too busy making things reach standards to bother with little old me :rotfl:

It was a lovely sunny morning and I actually managed to get my washing dried outside in the wind. It's pouring with rain now, so I'm feeling quite smug

Another three bin liners of random stuff to go in work's giant bins later. Also another spate of shredding. Why did I keep so much paperwork??:mad: Quite a few cupboards are empty now though, so it's paying off.

Three more items listed and three more finishing later today. I've already posted yesterdays items. Still masses to go though

Tonight is the evening shift, it will probably be quiet, if I remember I'll take my laptop in I can then keep up to date with the diaries.

Not a lot else to report I'm afraid, just soldiering on.

Well done with the washing, was not supposed to rain here until later this afternoon, but while at my Physio appointment it tipped down, OH had gone cycling and ridden 15 miles in the dry, but then had to ride back 15 miles in the cold and rain:(:( Fortunately I had taken my coat, and treated myself to a cheese scone and a cuppa for lunch while out:D

No date yet beanie, I'm not even sure how long these things take really. It's taking so long just to clear down the contents, I haven't even started to pack yet :eek:

Dreaming of slowing down :rotfl:one day when I've moved I'm going to do nothing but sit on the sofa, drink tea and read a book - all day!!

Still on the lookout for boxes, so far I have one cardboard box and six plastic boxes

There seems to be a spate of new diaries doing the rounds. It's interesting to see where I used to be and how far I've got on this debt free malarky. It has to be said there are one or two new diarists who have some painful lessons to learn, hopefully they all come through and make it to end though.

Not a lot doing here at work at the minute, I'm hoping for some customers sometime soon, very lonely evening otherwise. At least I've put some of my rubbish in their bins and answered an email from the solicitors. No eb@ying this evening as I did that earlier. Back to reading diaries I suppose....

Read a book all day that sounds blissful.

Regarding boxes - sometimes if you have a Civic Amenity site local they'll keep boxes for you. Our's does it for moving folks.

Or a local shop/business

Or freecycle/freegle if you can see yours locally.

Whilst a useless thought - a thought nonetheless and I'm sure you know this all already!

Goodluck!

When I went to nearby car park to leave all the unwanted cardboard at the re-cycling bins, I noticed that someone had stacked their folded large cartons in between the bins, rather than push them in, I assume this was deliberate for other people to take (as they were very tidy), if you are out in your car, it might be worth a regular drive by if you have any of these facilities near you.

I hope that you have had a good day today.:D

Still charging round like the proverbial headless chicken. Another five items up on eb@y this morning. In two months I've cleared nearly £1000:T:T Amazing what you can do when you have to Still masses more I can get up there, most of the items start off at 99p. It certainly is a way of earning extra cash, I hate it but would recommend it for anyone desperate to clear their debt.

I've found an outlet for some of my books, the miserable woman down at the post office. She's always reading so I asked what sort of books she likes and, lo and behold, I have loads on my shelves! Now on top of the parcels I take a few books, nothing like having gorilla arms....

What else? most of the linen is now in vacuum bags, just leaving a spare set in the airing cupboard. I need to tackle the china in the kitchen, fairly sure I don't need it all we shall see....

Work was quite busy for a change I did a lot of cooking, I'm getting a reputation for making nice food, not sure if this is a good thing :rotfl:Tonight if quiet I'll eb@y some 99p tat and see if it goes or not.
