Hoarding - to what degree do you hoard?

[Rob3rt]

You spend money on C+?

Books. But that's not hoarding, that's having a library.

And bikes, and bike bits that might (one day never) become bikes.

And clothes and shoes - I do regularly cull them, but not often enough for my wife's liking.

Why do I need your empty boxes?

I know why I keep them, and it's not to return stuff... I use them to line my compost heaps!

I'm still working my way through boxes of stuff that got packed for a house move 7 or 8 years ago, we've moved twice since and so have the unpacked boxes.

Nothing. My "rough rule" is if it's not been used for 6 months or more then it goes to the charity shop.

I agree with this

 

[threebikesmcginty]

I agree with this

I agree too, it's the implementing bit that's difficult though.

It made sense at the time. Mind you, that was back in the late 1980s but I still have a sub now ...

Victim protection programme?

My ex-partner was university-educated, had a highly paid job in a well known organisation, his own home with a large garden, two expensive cars, and a taste for petty violence towards women. Several times my brother offered to "teach him a lesson" but I bided my time, as I knew I could get him sent down for more than assault, something did not add up between his legitimate salary and what he was spending.
The police came, arrested my ex-partner for fraud, as they took him away he mumbled something about waiting for him, I waited until he had gone, packed my things and left for the ferry, leaving the door to his house wide open.

Beautiful......

I really hope you also hammered in a big sign outside saying 'Free stuff - help yourself'

I hardly know you, have had little to do with you, but if I'm ever in your neck of the woods I'd like to buy you a beer/wine/cup of tea.....

I have my wife , ex- wife and several ex- girlfriends in the cellar - does that count?

My mother and siblings went over to his house after I telephoned them from Larne and took their pick of his very expensive antiques and other belongings. I wrote to him in prison after he was sentenced explaining exactly what I had done, I hope it helped his morale.
My sister went past the house earlier this month, it has been destroyed. He will be released in August, I really wish I could see his face when he gets "home".

I have just moved house, this past week

Bikes, bike parts... in particular frames and wheels

5 operational bikes
3 frames and forks
God knows how many random wheels (guessing about a dozen or so)
