The removal company dropped in a load of boxes yesterday so I can really get packing now. We already had a dozen or so medium sized boxes here which I've filled with things that can be put into storage in the shed. I can also start packing boxes of books. I've gone off the idea of taking the old dark stained wood shelves with us so the books can stay in boxes until we get the living room carpet changed and then get some new shelving. By which time we will know how Col is and what we will do next.
And finally, what frugal things can I remember from this week ...............
Made 4 portions soup from the outside bits of a head of celery, a couple of carrots, half an onion and a tin of tomatoes
Found some unused 1st class stamps in my old stamp album when I was packing it away so have put them in the drawer to use them this year.
Ate homegrown beetroot, parsley, brussels sprouts, leeks and apples.
Made 3 loaves bread which work out at less than 38p loaf.
Free heat all week.
Took a flask and a snack to hospital to save having to buy at the cafe.
Cleared a blockage in the drains ourselves.
That's about it for today ,thanks for comments yesterday.
Back Tomorrow
