Which means Emptying the Attic. A sort of car boot sale without the car boot.

There was a lot of furniture to be got rid of. There were two of those sofas which we were very happy to sell to neighbours - a bargain for them and a bonus for us.

Friends joined in. That rolled up rug was purchased for E1200 ten years ago and was sold for E 30. What a steal for some lucky punter!

That yellow gingham tablecloth is only E1 but she isn't sure. Go on love - once its gone its gone!

And the big red rug went for E10. And so on. Loads of laughs. There is now a fund of stories to relate. What a fun day was had by all.
