Go! Get rid of the manure

Posted on July 24th, 2009 by Lib

No it’s not another post about cholonics, its about a new initiative by our friends in the US, which is all about getting rid of your possessions that aren’t really needed anymore and leaving yourself with 100 essential items.

No clutter

But therein lies the rub.

Because it’s up to you to decide what are the/your 100 essential items. One of mine would be my GHD’s but that doesn’t mean its going to be anyone else’s. And to be honest, I don’t think I could do it.

What about you. Do you think you could do it? Honestly? Think about everything you own, from ballpoint pens to balls of socks to books and CD’s.

And if you think you can do it, you have to tell me your top 10 essential items…..

        No, really Lib, what are GHD,s.
        Something to do with growth hormone or the latest recreationa drug soon to be slammed as ‘a menacing killer’ by the tabloids / red tops

        • Lib says:

          They’re hair straighteners, you wouldn’t want to confuse them with GHB. That would be one rubbish party.
