Have spent the morning culling toys and have a plastic crate and a carrier bag full for charity plus a couple of bigger things that I think I might carboot. Also went through a massive box of clothes Ive had waiting to sell and chucked a load of it in the charity bag-the effort involved in selling seems to be beyond me atm.

Am so proud of dd, when I told her what I was doing she at first said I couldn't get rid of anything but then I told her that some children didn't have any toys (guilt trip!)and promised to only get rid of things that were a) broken b) baby toys c) she didn't like and then she was really good and helped me go through it all suggesting things that could go
