I've been busy tidying up the wargaming room - ("my husband's toy soldier room") as my wife refers to it ! , ' The Mother of all Cleaning' or 'The Cleansing' ! , think I have got rid of 50% of my rules and rules paraphernalia - the hard back stuff has gone to a charity shop the others to recycling - some I have kept for sentimental reasons but I have only kept the rules I regularly play with . My C&C board games are also much more accessible now ,
The far side of the table is now accessible without breaking your neck - more tidying is due on this side as well.
Then I braved 'under the table' !!! the boxes will be restacked and labled so the ones I use regularly can be found easily - again a lot of stuff has been got rid off - mainly damaged scenery items not worth repairing.
Got some new box files to help the storage situation.
And even had time to set up a game ready for 'S' calling round tonight - a battle report will be forthcoming soon.
I find it hard to bring myself to part with 'stuff' but afterward appreciate the space and getting my most favourite collections on the table more often.
ReplyDeleteYes I know what you mean , but it was getting cluttered and it's much tidier know and I can find things.
DeleteBravo Tony on a job well done! I can't think of anything more difficult than trying to decide what treasures to keep or get rid of! I look forward to your next battle report!
ReplyDeleteI was a bit ruthless , but so much of the stuff was unused and hadn't been touched for years.
DeleteAlways feels good after a good sort out, looking grand.
ReplyDeleteYes I feel better for it !
DeleteGood Man! You know it has to be done.
ReplyDeleteYes , and I feel better for it !
DeleteGood on ya: I did a major clear-out a few years back (and am heading for another minor one). Daunting to begin with, but a good result on the other side, for sure. Worth the effort.
ReplyDeleteYes it has been long overdue .
