    Afternoon all. Lazy morning here but some progress made...

    145 - 146. Two plastic containers and lids no longer air-tight. BIN
    147. Spilled pot of Moroccan seasoning. BIN
    148. Various take-away containers kept as they "might come in handy". They don't. They just clutter up my cupboards. RECYCLING
    149. Dead Peace-Lily leaves. COMPOST
    150. 44 empty beer bottles (!) drunk by friends staying over the weekend. RECYCLING

    That's all for now.

    Congratulations (I think) on your divorce DuranGirl. Good decluttering ;)
