But why the wife? Surely a self-storage facility is somewhere to where you go personally, perhaps to escape from the stresses of the world.

PS Is a grave the ultimate self-storage facility?

I'm a hoarder, old batteries, old cables, shareware apps. Never know when you might need that old printer ultility app. :erm:

I'd have said that hoarding old primary cells is a step too far; unless you're building up a collection of historic batteries of course. I used to have semi-permanent custody of a Weston cell once.

Well I don't really horde them, I just don't immediately throw them away, I always think I might get a few days remote use out of them.

we're using our upcoming move as an opportunity to throw stuff out. I used to be a real hoarder but I'm starting to see the attraction of going through life with as little in tow as possible.

I plan to keep my lovely wife right by my side though. :)

Don't forget the kid :)

Seriously, I try to use every move in that way. Also, casual clothes that have not been worn in the last year go.

You clearly haven't been on the family meeting that kept me tied up the last couple of days :Yikes: This included the inlaws, the nosy aunt/uncle you were quite happy to have have not seen for years etc etc. In honesty, there were plenty of nice people as well. :)

No Sorry, there isn't. And I suppose at times like that it is really good to know you can rely/fall back on some people.

It's just that I had to sit through an extended family meeting recently (which I had mixed emotions about).

Well done on becoming a mod BTW. I'm sure you'll do a splendid job. :tu:
