            956-955. Wii weights - CS.
 957. New shoelaces - CS.
 958. Cute plastic tub - CS.
 959. Old broken necklace - binned.
 960. Box of Airfix civilians - CS.
 961. Lesney Red bus - CS.
 I've researched the last two items and due to their condition they are worth about £5 each. I'd rather the CS had the money than put the effort into finding a buyer or ebaying them.
 971 - 962. 10 beauty/stationery items sent to my cousin.
 991 - 972. Last 20 sachets of koolaid given to knitting friend.
 992. Book sold on amazon and posted off.

 995. Green plastic garden edging- binned.Decluttering 2015: 2162/20150

            Morning all
 Hope everyone is well
 Today
 5 adults bridesmaid dresses, net petticoats and an adult tutu will be leaving the house to go to the high school costume dept.
 A crocheted blanket a bottle of unused perfume and two gift bags will be leaving - donated to a raffle for cancer I made made the blanket using wool from my stash so that is double decluttering.
 A pair of glasses a card and a gift bag will be heading round my neighbours as her DD is getting married next weekend and I've had the gift stashed for her for a while.
 Finished reading a book that was given to me from the work adding circle so that is going back today for the next reader.
 A carrier bag full of egg boxes is going to work with me at lunchtime as reception class are making something with them.
 Newspapers and magazines from over the weekend need putting in the recycling I'll do that when I get back.
 While I'm out doing my drop offs I'll nip round Mils and refill her garden bin ready for the next collection.
 Feels like a decent amount of stuff will be leaving the house today.SPC~12 ot 124

 Tall thin cupboard that fits nicely in the corner of the spare room
 I've decided that I no longer want a display cabinet that was in the spare room as I don't really have many ornaments and now have the tall cupboard there instead. If nobody wants it, it can go on freecycle, as that's where I had it from originally.0
