Father in law died at the end of last month and have taken oodles of his stuff down to the charity shops whilst clearing his house. Made us look at our over stuffed home and realise that if we are going to emigrate as planned we really must get rid of everything we won't need "over there" in NZ.
We have reduced the two spare bedrooms to basics and only one change of bedding. Sorted the linen cupboard to only that worth shipping. Good Grief! the thing is half empty and all the drawers no longer need a sledgehammer to close them.
The other spare room is full of stuff and we'll be emptying it as fast as we can. we may even be able to walk to the window by Christmas...
At last! I can join the de-cluttering club.
