Probably. I was just being deliberately contrary 
But... it has to be said... how soon until living alone in quite middle-classness, becomes 'house full of cats and thirty-seven tonnes of newspapers stacked in every room'?
I know, my first response was missing a But... it has to be said... how soon until living alone in quite middle-classness, becomes 'house full of cats and thirty-seven tonnes of newspapers stacked in every room'?
in hindsight!According to all the 'empty the hoarders house' extreme cleaning programmes I have watched, and in line with every conceivable reality TV format, there is an emotional trigger event that starts the hoarding. Some are legit, for example bereavement/widowed/overwhelmed by hobbies.
Council hoarding is usually just a lack of discipline, accumulating too much s
t for their already overcrowded house without moving other stuff on, or waiting for cousin 'Tel to borrow his works' Tipper van to do a tip run.
basically normal people have kitchen stuff that tends to be white, stainless or maybe cream. It'll be a mis-match of stuff. good things that last.
council have everything colour coded.
but it won't be suited cream- it'll be all black, or red, or another colour that's out of fashion instantly.
fridge, cooker, washer, toaster, knife holders, kettle and so on.

he had a sword collection (obviously) on the wall. all very sad.
I had to visit a house in Fife some years ago. It also had a sword collection on the walls of a small room. Hundreds of them and pikes and battleaxes too. Broomhall House, the seat of the Earls of Elgin. 
Not council.

If that beautiful little girl, Kaitlyn, (I refuse to use the crap version her parents came up with), doesn’t stab her parents to death by age 11, and get exonerated by a jury of her peers, then there’s no such thing as British justice.Frank7 said:
