It's that time of year, when we empty all our rubbish out of the basement and take it to the marketplace at Houilles the Unpronouncable, set up a table and flog it to passers by. Up at 6am, first customers 7am, pack up 7pm. It's hard work for a few Euros but good for decluttering, the morale, recycling and pleasant exchanges.

Recluttering
The risk is of course that you are tempted to buy replacement rubbish at a very reasonable price. A theme runs through my purchases, could it be that I am a multi-colour magpie? But a delicious pleasure...
