If anyone were going to create a Platonic ideal of "miscellaneous", they'd have a hard time besting the file I've just found.

The bankers' box includes: a single council tax and water bill; photos of my cousin's baby (now age 2); a theatre programme; a flyer from a jigsaw puzzle maker at a craft fair; a List of the Lepidoptera occurring within six miles of Haslemere (1913); a diagram of the Rotunda in the Hanover Hotel, Hickley; a blank compliments slip from the solicitor who did our conveyancing; instructions on assembling IVAR shelving; and a Feb 1996 issue of the Imperial College student newspaper.

Now, where to file it...

Separately.

And mostly in the bin...

Under 'other'.

In the end I had a couple of boxes simply labelled, 'Paper drift,' for all the stuff that I knew might contain at least one important item, but I didn't have time to sort through properly. I've even managed to recover the urgent items from those piles (it helps to put in some easily visible sheets of paper to divide the box into its constituent piles.

I do have a box labelled 'other'. But this isn't it :-)

When we moved from Bath to Southampton, we ended up with a number of boxes labelled "stuff" or "kipple", perhaps with some indication of which room might be best placed to deal with the contents.

We've still not attempted to deal with most of them.

... which may be why I'm finding this move harder work. It feels like it should be less work than usual as we're only going for a year and we're not just bunging the whole house in a van. But that means I want to sort everything in advance of the move, so we don't get swamped in unnecessary paperwork at the far end and that we don't need something that we've left inaccessible in the other house. So, time to sort. My priorities are changing too, and I want to pack away things that would distract my focus. Full-time student --> full-time job is different from part-time job + home-maker and servant to fandom.
