Subject: RE: Declutter & Fitness - Clearing Out the House
Had a great day yesterday selling all our stuff in front of our house.
Lots of very nice visitors and also some early dealers, who always descend long before the stated time and cruise around the village buying up all the best stuff to sell at the regular car-boots on Saturday afternoons.

We don't mind dealers, as they pay just the same as ordinary folk.

We sold our huge garden rocking chair, and all four Ikea Poang chairs.

Nearly all the mountain of Crimbo decs went (I'd colour co-ordinated them into individual carrier bags) and lots of earthenware tubs and pots for people to plant indoor hyacinth bulbs.

We made £55, which doesn't sound much, but the main motivation for taking part was to shift clutter.

(And I absolutely adored nattering to all the people - villagers, visitors from other villages, holiday-makers staying in the holiday barn up the road and even our lovely neighbours showed up! I was quite hoarse by the end of the day.)
Weather was chilly but dry and not too much wind.
