Thanks guys We did brilliantly, so pleased :T :T
We took some stuff that we were just planning on getting rid of as it was bulky, heavy and a bit of a hassle to carry, but they all sold :T :T
We sold 89 books :T :T That cleared some space and weight, and also some bulky kids toys too.
We had stuff packed all over the car on the way up, but on the way back the boot wasn't even full.
DH bought a couple of bits but I didn't buy anything :A"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 -
