Downsizing has begun .........

Had our first garage sale today. Follows on from our first skip to get rid of rubbish.

Sale was quite successful; getting rid of a number of the larger, hard to get rid of items that we don't want to take with us - birdcages, trailer, wheelbarrow and our 6 foot fish tank (see earlier postings).

This has led to the first "casualties" of our reduction policy. Had to find a new home for the fish (only three, but they are a fair size). Plans to sell the two-foot tank were abandoned. This was set up and the fish successfully transferred. Although we won't be moving to a house that is much smaller than where we currently are, the same cannot be said for the fish.
