'Tis done
2 Days Ago

2 six shelf units in the kitchen. 1 nine shelf unit in the lounge.
Everything else has been given away except my school prizes which are hidden in a bedroom cupboard.
Took four big boxes of teaching books, grammar and general linguistics to Grimsby FE college library and yet another box (of cookery books this time) to Oxfam. I feel very virtuous.star star

60's hangover
Nov 20, 1999

If you can remember the sixties you weren't there? I can remember long stretches and I was a student for about half of them. Definitely remember taking bets on whether we'd be around untilY2K (didn't call it that then) Unfortunately the stakeholder died, as hoped, "before I'm 30"
