Dal Riata Don Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Try the KonMari method: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Kondo#KonMari_method if you still want to cut back on your stuff. If it doesn't bring you joy and it's not essential for your life then get rid! Link to comment
BrianFaePerth Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 The last few months have seen me get on first name terms with Abdul and Mohammad down at the dump. There is nothing more satisfying than driving away with an empty car knowing your shite is someone else's problem Link to comment
BrianFaePerth Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I have a ridiculous amount of Metal Hammer magazine's I simply can't throw out.Saving grace is they are now out in the garage.Some may say geek, I just enjoy the up to date rock n metal reviews and interviews..... It doesn't make me a bad man.But the African hookers do Link to comment

The Buzzard Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I have a room that since we moved in here 2 and a half years ago has just been filled with junk etc. Started off neatly packed with boxes and a unit with clothes. Now its an absolute fucking shambles of a room. I cannot get her to commit to going through stuff so we can horse most of it out. Link to comment

Ohjimmyjimmy Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Jesus Christ Brian you thick fuck. Not a hoarder but when youve got a sprog the shite just accumulates. Wife is keeping most of the bairns clothes for number two - guaranteed itll be a boy next time round! I could quite happily live with very few posessions. Link to comment

tiktak Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Not a hoarder at all but three years back when my father died I set about emptying the house. Up in the loft in an old suitcase I found what i think was the first comic I ever paid for with my own money - a Whizzer and Chips from 1970. I do remember vowing to keep it at the time but thought it was long gone and no idea how it got in a suitcase. Now framed and up on a wall. 1 Link to comment
For Fecks Sake Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Last year I finally gave the wife an ultimatum of getting rid of all the baby stuff we had in the garage or let's get on with making #3 which I knew she did not want to do. Fuck me, filled a transit van with the amount of stuff we had, prams, buggies, cribs and enough clothes to keep an orphanage in Romania stocked for years to come. All went to Home Start charity in Kincorth and their shop beside John Lewis. Mind you, still Canna get my car in the garage like! Link to comment
The Boofon Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I'm murder for it but also murder for throwing out stuff that ultimately is needed. Prime example this time home. Loads of charity shop stuff collected by the wife and put beside stuff that was needed for next year at Christmas. Kids Christmas jumpers etc.She explained this to me but because they were in close proximity and when she talks I've the attention span of a goldfish I subsequently scooped everything up and away it went to the Barnardos clothing bin. I could see that the Christmas stuff was needed to be kept and thought it was strange she was binning it. Despite that off I went. Just complete auto pilot. When I came home she asked me where the Christmas stuff was. In the Barnardos bin obviously. She took a while to calm down after that. Still have no idea why I did it. Just a brain fart for a few minutes. Have launched several things that looked like shite only to find out it's a key component to a pram, toy or whatever and end up having to pay ridiculous prices off Amazon to replace. Huge clear out this time home upcoming. I've been warned to only pack away approved stuff. 1 Link to comment

Like LP collectors I think it’s worth more to my possession than any monetary market value.Takes up a lot of space tho unfortunately. Link to comment

Like LP collectors I think its worth more to my possession than any monetary market value.Takes up a lot of space tho unfortunately.Aye for a lot of them you dont get much,but as I had put themall on my laptop anyway,they were just sat gathering dust and taking up space.There are a few out there and you can scan the barcode in and they give you a value.I had a few special editions and rarities that they offered a couple of quid for,so kept them to sell on EBay or wherever.Youll nae make a fortune or anything near what you bought them for,but theyre nae worth much in this digital download age anyway...
