It's on!
Lina the Tosser is coming tomorrow, so I'm going to be one jump ahead of her and made a start on the study about 5am and have already binned about 10,000 receipts. What a waste of money, buying all that stuff in the first place!!!!!! Oh dearie me, what to do with old photos, old cards (I have an entire 7-drawer chest full), letters (I have some written by my late father to my late mother from Papua New Guinea about 60 years ago), ornaments, pictures and wall hangings, CDs, spare paper, etc, etc, etc?? I also have an entire row of diaries in the bottom of a cupboard.
Some things, like records of all the private students who passed through my hands, will not be so hard to throw out. I got rid of my uni notes a year or so ago.
From now on, as I promised yesterday, I will only buy things that can be eaten or drunk (except for packing boxes, five of which I bought early this morning).

Now I'm exhausted with all your packing and it's only 9.00am. It has been a strange morning before I read your blog: British Gas were on the doorstep at 8.00am to test the gas supply to our central heating boiler whilst I was getting one child off to the school bus and trying to bring the other to some sense of urgency as she goes half an hour later but today allowed to dress in BLUE and take some money for the priviledge; which is donated to 'Children in Need' - a big charity here. How many blue things does she have and one has to look COOL too. I only had boys myself - girls are so much harder to raise - they actually care what they wear!
