lightofdayea) Never try to trim a beard. You will end up with an incoherent in asymmetrical mess. Aargh.
b) didn't manage to do the writing I told you lot I might. Did start the room tidying I told the parents I was going to do. My floor is now considerably less strewn with paper and odd rubbish. The paper and cards done in the recycling bin but a lot of the rest of it has been consolidated into new piles or tucked away in odd draws and shelves.
The wole process left me oddly downhearted. I have so many piles of books and dvds i never really make use of anymore but are still loath to give away. I should be more strict and give them away/hawk the dvds to the exchange shop.

I read some advice once which said that you don't need to keep those books that you've read to display your knowledge or remind you of what you learned from them. It's all there in your head. This was useful to me when I had to give away about a thousand books once.

Happier wih the extra space. Still got a lot to do though.
