G for Glasses - turned into Spectacle type Glasses!. A couple of pairs will be going to Specsavers for recycling and a couple of cases have found new uses - good for holding small pairs of scissors and other small sewing items. Some battered ones are in the bin.
Wonder what H will inspire?

None of which I have excess. I do have masses of haberdashery, but I know full well, if I sorted it out and threw away anything, I would need it the next week! Point in case: I saved some strong non-woven fabric, from packaging I think, on the off chance It might come in handy. Lo and behold! P's leaf vacuum collecting bag developed a hole. I will patch it with my salvaged fabric.......oneday.  How much of your clutter riddance have you regretted?
PS. I do suspect that you just might have rather more clutter than most, can't think why

As you well know, its not clutter if you have a use for it ............one day!.
Today's H turned into Hangers of the Clothes type (not the aircraft ones). I even reorganised the wardrobe while I weeded out lots of redundant Hangers.
Apparently, Sainsburys & Tesco will accept surplus hangers - though when I'll go to either again, is a question!

After mulling over Ink, Incense, Indian spices and Italian cookery books, I thought of Irrigation (doesn't everybody?).
A few years ago I was given a lot of Hoselock Irrigation stuff that I thought I could use in the GH. Needless to say, I haven't! Too much faff to set up something that I can do by hand with a watering can. Shame really, as its all new kit. Since offering on the Freebie group, 6 people have requested it.
I also found a soil testing kit, and one of those probe things, and a Moisture meter probe. I have no confidence in any of them so they're going too.
J tomorrow will be Jewellery. Can't remember when I last wore any!

Many years ago I went to a garage clearance and was told to help myself to anything I wanted. They didn't have to ask twice! Some of the stuff ended up in my garage, and is in need of a clearance of its own. Amongst the junk was a petty cash box (no key) that was full of necklaces, earrings & brooches. None of it of any value. I did try selling it at a car boot sale once, but it came back unwanted and ended up back in the garage!
Its been surprisingly popular on the Freebie sits today - 7 people asked for it. Its being collected tomorrow 
I for Irrigation stuff was collected today and I was given some freshly collected giant sunflower seeds and sweetpea seeds in return. Chuffed with these.- really would like to grow them next year.
Tomorrow is K and all I can think of is Keys. Any ideas?.............and Kitchen.

K is for Key Rings! One is quite old, for an MG car, from an MG MIdget. Reg No 900HFR. Could sell that for a few pennies now.
The other key ring has a bottle opener on it! No idea where that came from!
The Junk Jewellery has been collected and the Soil Testing stuff.
L for Leather, Letters, Lacy Lingerie!
