Statement Of Principle

Cupboards are for storing things you're not using at the moment but fully intend to. They're not for storing ornaments. There are only two possible places for ornaments- on show or down the charity shop.

You could have ornaments in storage, not a bad idea to have a few on display at a time and rotate them, so you can enjoy them all but not all at once

I do that. It means I can mark the seasons in my tiny living room.

I used to be of this opinion. But now I am pretty sure that the welfare state will no longer exist by the time I need it, I have switched to the Wemmick stategy and have started stuffing cupboards with portable property.

And when the time comes you'll sell?

Yes. When I sold off all my horse gear on eBay, I was surprised how much money I raised towards the final vet's bill...
