An interesting read from the bbc, important to read stuff like this regularly and to watch programmes like "hoarders buried alive" etc as I have MASSIVE hoarding tendencies and I need to keep them under control. Off to throw something away now.
I put a Melody Maker in the recycling earlier. I have been hoarding all of the back issues that I bought in the mid '90s during the britpop era, but this one was the last ever melody maker from December 2000 that I found in a drawer. It had Limp Bizkit on the cover and King Adora inside, no redeeming features whatsoever. So it's gone in the (recycling) bin.
I don't think books should count as "clutter", that's different, but dvds and toys, yeah get rid!
