Some unplanned decluttering done tonight. Hubbie’s van has been broken into and several hundreds of pounds of power tools have been taken:mad:

Mrs SD, you are just what I have been looking for. Your encouragements and best wishes are going to see me to my goal . Was working yesterday so didn't manage any decluttering but after work this afternoon am planning on getting the ebay stuff loaded up and then may even tackle loft :rotfl:

Hello, can I join in too please?

We are hoping to build an extension later this year and I need to get rid of some (a lot of) stuff! I was thinking 1 item a day, so 366 for the year.

I'm aiming for 150 toiletries in the 'No Buying Unnecessary toiletries' thread, which leaves me 216 other things to do. I'm not going to include everyday rubbish or recycling, but if I make an effort to use something up or actively sort through paperwork/receipts etc, then I will include that.

Good luck to everyone. x

It’s been a productive morning so far, the bookcases have been done (for now at least) with a large reusable tote full and ready to head into work on Monday. All the books that I haven’t read yet have been put together on one shelf and wooden crate in front (some of them are too tall to fit on the shelf).

One of my aims this year is to reduce the number of books I buy online, instead I will use bookshops, charity shops and the library....
BUT before bring anymore books into my flat in need to read what I already have.

Just in case you don't know this, my aunt has macular degeneration and finds watching TV using HD helps. I can't usually see any difference but she says the difference is amazing

The TV has HD so I'll make sure it is used. Thanks for that. in my wellies

And they'll probably sell them for a pittance somewhere. Most tradesmen would help another who is struggling they wouldn't have to steal. Hope you can sort it quickly,

If you have an e reader then try Net Galley.co.uk. You get to read books in return for a review
