I have tried to post this for the last 3 days and each time it has failed to load and I've lost both the shot and the narrative .
We have been clearing out the loft , finding toys from the days when our children were young , deciding what to keep and what to pass on. 
The Duplo and Happy street were washed in the bath, dolls clothes and soft toys machine washed. We have booked our slot at the recycling centre and are hoping that the charity shops will open shortly. 
It's taken 3 days so far in between all the other things that have to be done. A take away curry tonight and then Strictly as our reward !
