Weekly tips and hints on cleaning using natural household products (i.e. vinegar etc) would be really useful.
Thanks

Thanks Sarah and welcome to the site.
I am to cover this in the “spring cleaning” issue in early April.

Hi Richard
Thanks for putting your time and energy into doing this. I have enjoyed following your writings, which give me food for thought, and also reinforce my own thinking- I am in the midst of de-cluttering and improving my home, have been for a while – I have come to many of the same conclusions that you have, and it is good to be reminded of them – you are adding energy to my process and I thank you for that.
Do you know about the ‘freecycle’ network? It is fabulous – the onus is on reducing landfill, so you give away or ask for things you need, no money exchanged. In fact, I have four people coming round in 10 minutes to collect various items
An easy way of getting rid of all kinds of things, and the best bit is people come to your door to take it all away
Best wishes

Hi Richard
Continuing to enjoy reading your writings and pondering. I think the idea of an hour a night is a good one.
I find there is definitely a work/life/decluttering balance to be struck – so as not to get overwhelmed with too much to do, and to leave enough time to enjoy the fruits of one’s labours. ‘Little and often’ works well for me.
Keep up the good work! Looking forward to the next installment.
Steve
