I've just bought a whole heap of Really Useful Boxes - I love those things!!! Decluttering seems to be going in reverse but the plus side is that one lidded box will hold what was previously in 2.5 open crates, so I can stack stuff on it and reduce the footprint.
I've also bought a new mouse mat that has an integral 4 port USB Hub, so that will reduce the trailing cables and means I can use my pen mouse whilst downloading music from the external hard drive to the MP3 player... fab!
Back to the slog now... make it look like I've actually done something... :D
