My heart goes out to your family re: stolen bag And lost keys. I received a letter from the passport office, my passport that I have just sent to the passport office has gone missing. I feel very vulnerable and am going to have to be even more careful.

Big flinging session in the kitchen yesterday. This is what made it into the bin, I have a box of stuff to go to the charity shop as well!

254-258 - 5 empty sweet tubs
259 - Bottle of sticky stuff remover (I hate the smell)
260 - Tin of Neutral shoe polish partly used but no idea when
261/262 - 2 old battered fairy cake trays where were too shallow (I prefer muffin tins)
263 - Grill pan (brought from our old house in 2004) which was rusty and I can't remember the last time I grilled something! I bake everything in my remoska or fry bacon in my ceramic frying pan!
264 - Battered Storage box which just looked terrible
265/266 - 2 bamboo utensils. I didn't like using them and they were splintering
267 - Edible glitter (best before end of April) as I won't be baking DD's birthday cake this year again
268/269 - Cookie cutter/punches which said "Eat me" and "Homemade". Loved the idea but they were a nightmare to clean
270-275 - 6 jelly tubs with lids (bought from A$da) they leaked and were growing icky things from the 1 and only time they were used.
276-280 - 5 steam mop cloths for the steam mop that died the other week.
281 - Broken plastic pot I'd been using for storage
282 - Wire food bag ties
283 - Thin food bags which I never use
284 - 1 odd plastic knife
285 - Bandage scissors given to us by my ex-mil before I moved in here. I used to use them to cut the skin off chicken.
286 - Random medicine spoon (I have 3 in the medicine box already!)
287 - Damaged rolling pin (no idea what happened to it, but it was dented and had splinters)
289-291 - Icepacks bought for DD to use when taking chilled stuff to school for cookery. She no longer does cookery so don't need them any more. They were also whiffy
292 - ice pack from the inside of a sports bottle we no longer have
293 - bag resealer from Kl33n3ze. I just couldn't get on with it and it didn't seal stuff so I binned it.
294-297 - Flexible chopping boards that I couldn't stand. I tried, I hated them *fling*!
298 - Pathetic icecube tray that came with my fridgefreezer (I have 2 better ones)
299 - Plastic storage cup which leaked and I haven't used in years
300-303 Plastic tumblers which we no longer use but were too scratched to donate
304 - broken router
305 - Smartprice sports bottle used once and found lurking in the back of the cupboard
306-310 5 round plastic storage food tubs (really cheap ones designed to be disposable) with their lids
311 - Bottle of wood floor polish (bought in error, I thought it was just a different scent) which made the floor too slippery for the dog to walk on
312 - Accessory from the steam mop
313 - Hob cleaning stick (just messy and horrible to use)
314 - Damaged placemat which was used for crafts
315/316 - 2 water refill jugs for irons. We never use them, always use a normal jug as you can fit more water in one!
317 - Almost empty bottle of mould killer (as in dregs, no idea why I kept it!)
318 - Broken torch/light thing (batteries put with the others waiting to be recycled)
319 - Bottle of limescale remover. No idea how long it's been under the sink but the spray part had started to perish and wasn't working :eek:
320 - Tin of stain remover for the carpet. Awful product
321 - Empty tub of ant powder (or it was so damp it had stuck together)
322 - Perished/mouldy heavy duty rubber gloves
323 - Rehydration crystals for the dog which were out of date
324 - Bandage used from when he wore the cone of shame
325-327 - 3 damaged dog toys
328-331 - 4 handwarmers which didn't work very well
332 - a broken cheap bubble gun
333 - a grooming brush which the dog hated and scratched him
334 - Curtain wire
335 - automatic spray airfreshener thing which was rusty on the inside. I kept the cans and will use them up as normal airfreshener
336/337 - 2 glass candle sticks which were chipped due to the way they were stored
338-340 - 3 individual tealight holders also chipped
341 - small storage box which has gone icky which contained the glass candle sticks/tealight holders
342-345 - 4 small candles in jars which were burnt down or had grown ick on them
346-356 - individual tealights which were icky
357/358 - 2 tinned candles which were burnt down.

There was more but I can't read my own handwriting :rotfl: I'm hoping to get to 504 before the end of the month to be on target for the year.
