Few more bits and pieces of out to recycling or into the Charity shop bag.

Power hosed the front garden and back yard yesterday also, and a load of stuff that hasn't been looked at in years were put into the bin from the yard also. It's looking much more tidy now.
3 items sold on ebay were posted yesterday, have 2 returns to make to Amazon however I ran out of time today to post them so they'll have to wait till next week when I'm home again.

That's be my de-cluttering done for a week, I'm off to London to in the morning for a week, to visit a friend and her new baby, and also do some sight seeing. I've ever been to London before so looking forward to it.

I've been going through my fabric cupboard and now have a bag of bits and pieces to go to the library - they run craft sessions for children and welcome scraps of fabric.

Also,I went through my book shelves and have quite a few for the CS, books I haven't looked at for ages, so they might as well go, with some clothes that haven't been worn for quite a while.

I've got some clothes that are not quite good enough for the CS, but could go to the textile skip at the tip, so that's another bag. I also put some shoes in the shoe recycle outside our cobblers, that's so handy.

At the beginning of the year I had a massive de clutter, since then I've been taking the odd bag to the chazzer, but over the last two days I've sorted out quite a bit of stuff to go.

I'm far more ruthless than I used to be, I used to hang on to stuff for far too long.

My favourite cheap trip around London: boat from Westminster to Greenwich, walk the tunnel underneath the Thames, DLR back to city centre.

Someone help me. I decided to make a start on the deep clean and declutter of DS bedroom.:eek::o:rotfl:

So far a bin bag of rubbish, a carrier bag of charity shop stuff and a bag of paper recycling. All this from his bookshelf. I've barely scratched the surface but it's a start. I'm going back in shortly to make a start on the wardrobe. I may never be seen again.

Hello all, rather a lot of life getting in the way of posting here recently!

The plumber has just finished installing a completely new bathroom - old one was completely ripped out! We now have a shower for the first time ever, and the littlies have been using it more than us!! :rotfl:

Lost track recently, but over the last week I've de-cluttered:

333-334 2 bags garden rubbish to the tip
335-340 large cardboard boxes (from new bathroom) to the tip
341-343 3 bags general rubbish to the tip
344-355 12 jars/bottles to the glass bin at the tip

Not done much today, except for a brief tip run, as we're melting - 36'C in Yorkshire, unheard of!! Tomorrow, if it's less warm, I'm hoping to do a ruthless purge of all our clothes, clear the dining table, and make a start on the attic, unless it's too hot up there.

I also need to sort through all the kitchen cupboards - pots and pans, crockery, ambient foods, etc - think that will be a whole weekend's work alone!!

Been reading to catch up - some fab stories, keep it up, folks!!
