What started as an exercise to tidy up my son's bookcase escalated to a thorough digging out of a teenager's bedroom, so not only did the Percy Jackson, Alex Rider, CHERUB and HIVE books get cleared out but also some seriously uncool clothing and those few toys remaining from the previous cull, quickly giving rise to four piles: rubbish for the bin; decent stuff to go to the charity shop; stuff to store for future generations, including 6 boxes of Lego bricks; and items of sentimental value to be kept safely for future reminiscence; the pleasure to be taken from these last items increases with time as I can testify from the recent rummage through my own box of youthful remnants.
