I Love And Marriage

A problem afoot is rearing its ugly head chez nous. Three weeks of sustained nagging has resulted in a well measured shopping trip to Ikea. Ordinarily wild horses will not get the man himself in there, but wild horses are no contest for the shrewish tongue. A storage solution turning the tiniest bedroom into an uncluttered boxroom for less than £500 is coming unstUck. Who knew there was quite so much essential crap in our house? Is there no end to this bric a brac hell? How do normal people manage to keep their houses neat and tidy - and have all their rooms functioning as rooms?

I suppose we could build a wing on the house

expanding space would just expand the amount of stuff you wind up keeping. The only way is to be ruthless, I'm afraid. Anything you havent needed in 12 months, you're never going to need, so bin it.

@firefall i would have no problem at all with that. In fact i sometimes ask the neighbours if they'd mind me putting stuff in their bin
