I feel I am getting closer to my inner Spartan but it's the little everyday objects that catch me out - I have a seriously debilitating carrier bag habit, a basketful of small pieces of plastic packaging that might look good on a rocket, Amazon 'envelopes' that would make wonderful scrapbook covers.....Oh god help me! I so very nearly threw away a (came free with...) skate bag with a broken zip but found myself stooped over the bin yanking and yanking until I had fixed it. And as for all the loose batteries - I put them in a separate bag marked - For Testing. <br /><br />Expensive wooden pieces of recreating-the-childhood-I-never-actually-had heaven just remind me now of what a deluded mug I was for parting with the rent money in the first place. Glad to get rid of my embarrassing mistakes there. <br /><br />Chad Valley is proudly on show now.<br /><br />When I think of the wasted hours trying to find stripy candy cane for the Xmas stockings........
