We've had a sort through of some of the kids toys this morning. Two big crates full to go, plus a couple of other items. It doesn't look like anything's gone though :eek:"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".

I think kids toys secretly breed when you're not looking :rotfl::rotfl:
I'm trying to clear Mr Retired's hobby stuff. It's something he'll never be able to do again and we have someone who'll buy the whole lot and pick it all up as well. Trouble is he agrees to sell everything one day, the next he wants to hang onto a few bits, his few bits are a approx 500 items :eek:
I've got his camera stuff to go through next.
Have a good weekend.0 -

I think they do :rotfl:
I hope you manage to clear Mr retired's collection. I know how hard it is trying to persuade someone to do it! It's nice that you've got a buyer though.
Hope all is well with you"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -

Little jwil came home with a seedling to look after during the holidays :eek: I've got to try and keep that alive and growing. Don't they know I'm a plant serial killer? :rotfl:
We had a quiet day Saturday as we were all shattered. Yesterday we decided to take advantage of the nice weather so went out for the day. We had a look at 2 car boots, and then took the kids to the beach. They loved it and it was quite nice in the sun!
I was very good at the car boots and bought little jwil 2 books for 50p, and little miss a top, dress and leggings for £1. Bargains!
Today I took little jwil into nursery to have photos taken with little miss, and now we are having a quiet day at home. I'm pottering about prepping some bits to go on eBay. It's recycling day tomorrow so I should tackle a pile of papers and postcards that I've put aside to sort through so that any that need to be gone can be gone!"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do".
