we downsized after bringing up 5 children from a 10 room house to a 2 bed house. We had what we call here in Uk a couple of carboot sales. The furniture we had was much too large for our new house, so we could only take a few pieces but as luck would have it , the person who bought the house was from South Africa and needed to furnish the house. He was more than happy to buy our furniture, which was great for us as well. The only thing was, when we moved, I has not been introduced to quilting, so the second bedroom is now my sewing room, cum bedroom for visitors. I manage fine but cannot do any sewing when there are visitors.
