I didn't get very far with this!! Surprise, surprise.
Today's declutter involves the downstairs "flooded" cloakroom - posh name for an understairs space with a washbasin, toilet and 3 cupboards that have had to be emptied and dried off. Here are some of the surprising items I've found:-
An Iron!
Three bottles of Turkish Lemon Cologne (always brought some home from my travels but haven't been to Turkey for 20+ years).
A bottle of Elderberry wine - October 1991
Bottle of Belgian white beer - drink by 15/5/2010
Multiple Bags for Life
Lots of hessian & cotton fabric Bags for Life that are too small for a supermarket shop but I can't bear to part with!
Several bottles of Liqueurs, unopened - the sort you bring back from holidays but have no wish to drink - like the Tunisian Date Liqueur.
A pair of spotty wellies that aren't comfortable for more than 5 minutes.
Countless First aid items - bandages, dressings, plasters. In an emergency, the patient would have died before I found these. I'm never sure whether to take the expiry date seriously when they're in a sealed pack?
I'll spare you the rest of the clutter.
