Decluttering games


The games cupboard has been decluttered! As has the space under the sideboard (where the games live). Some board games have been given the heave-ho, as have some desiccated leaves and a couple of dust bunnies.

The heaved-hoed games are in a box awaiting delivery to a charity shop. One jigsaw is in limbo. It's neither here, nor there. The jigsaw will be assembled and jig-seen. When we have ascertained whether it is complete or not its fate will be decided. The two possible states for Schrödinger's jigsaw are joining the games on their trip to the charity shop, or being added to the recycling.

A number of years ago I was at a charity fayre where a large number of children's jigsaws had been donated. People were not interested until I started assembling them.  When it was seen that all the pieces were present people were keen to buy them.  We shall assemble the jigsaw.  If all the pieces are there I'll pop the pieces into a ziplock bag, and slip in a note to say the jigsaw had been checked.  This will hopefully allow the charity shop to sell the puzzle quickly.
