Cardboard

I've gotten into the bad habit of chucking old Amazon boxes into one of the compartments of the stable block- and they've been piling up and piling up. Yesterday, with the prospect of potential buyers coming to visit, we asked Julia to sort them out- and she's reduced a Mont Blanc of cardboard to a neat little pile in the corner of the room. I am enormously impressed because I wouldn't have known where to start. I have been in and out of there this morning, picking out boxes to put Christmas presents in ahead of the family get together on Saturday.
