  • Thank you so much for that, its really interesting so will take a better look later when 18 month old isn't climbing up my legs! The bit I did read has really struck a chord with me, as this weekend I looked round my house and just thought "God I'm sick of having so much stuff!" Stuff that needs more tidying, more clothes to wash and iron, more toys that my daughter can play with, more mugs and glasses than as a family of three we could possibly ever need and so on, I just suddenly felt incredibly suffocated by all this stuff and the thought of whatever I do have I'm never happy with because there is always something to "improve" or something that is better than what I have. I'm fed up of spending money on things that I don't need and then not having enough money for the things I really do need. Sorry this has turned into a bit of a rant, but I want to turn over a new leaf. I don't want shopping to be a hobby of mine anymore, it is not doing me any favours. So thank you so much for the website :D
