    I love car boot sales you got some lovely bargains there jwil xx

    Thanks abba :) I love them too. I was hoping to get selling this weekend, but one is already cancelled due to the wet ground and it looks like it will be wet all weekend anyway :( Need to get selling as we have nowhere to put stuff!

    Well done on your car boot bargains and keep going with the de-cluttering you are doing fantastic.

    With you on the seedling, I've killed every plant the kids have tried to grow!

    I hope not :D I can't wait til the weather improves and I can start getting rid of stuff! I've added so many books in particular, I need to be strict about just putting them out a couple of times and then sending them off to charity.

    I'm not sure how well I'm doing with my list actually, better check :D

    Thanks penny. It's hard enough trying to keep the children alive sometimes let alone plants too :rotfl:
