...and then sometimes I think I shouldn't be blogging, I should be doing something useful instead. Like tidying up. So I thought I'd combine the two. That small table by my front door, it needs a good tidy. Let's see how much of it I can clear away...
Stuff on the small table by my front door [ keep on table, remove] Front door keys, wallet, Oyster (they stay) Spare set of front door keys (must give to BestMate, just in case I ever lock myself out) Work security pass (that photo is so old now) P60 tax certificate (sigh, I thought I'd looked everywhere for that three months ago) (file it) Repeat prescription (must not lose this, must not lose this) Outpatients appointment card (must keep safely until Easter) Christmas card from the Royal Mail telling me how good they are ("recycle now") Handwritten note from bloke in the flat nextdoor asking me to turn my music down (sheesh, even I can hardly hear it most of the time) Route map for Beijing 2008 London torch relay (can be safely binned I think) Receipt from pub lunch celebrating Dad's 70th birthday (I should bin this, but I know I won't) Various till receipts (5) (well, you never know when you might need them) Various cashpoint receipts (3) (not sure I'll ever need these) Obsolete Tesco Clubcard (2) (fold, snap, bin) Voucher offering 25 Extra Clubcard Poiints when I spend £2.00 or more on Fresh Fish (Tesco not quite pushing the boat out there) Empty camera case (wish I hadn't bothered buying it now, never use it) Handkerchiefs (2) (into the linen basket with them) Free biros (3) (I wonder if they're allowed in the recycling) iPod shuffle (and spare headphones) (perfect for blocking out the rush hour) Stumpy remnants of a packet of Polos (I never seem to get round to eating the last two) Shiny silver watch (my "weekends and evenings" timepiece) Squeezy pink pig (ahh, I love my squeezy pink pig) £19 Rail ticket (must claim this back on work expenses) Badge saying "I ♥ Hackney" (I'll never wear it, but I bet I could give it away) Julie's business card (I bet she doesn't work there any more) Free Walkers pedometer (battery's dead, must get a new one) Milton Keynes bus timetable (unlikely to be of any future use) Secret Santa nameslip (ooh, I've drawn my former boss, the possibilities for mischief-making are endless) Poppy (I really should chuck this away and buy a new one next year) 1p coins (3) (I'll add these to the jar of 300 or so I've got elsewhere) Framed photograph of Whitstable beach (stays)
