@Dimity sincere apologies for causing you distress by removing my post, but I won't hijack your excellent thread topic with explanations. There is no negativity directed at you, nor at the subject matter, it was an attempt to protect myself. 

I'm glad you got to read it, if you get notification emails about posts, the content will be in that email. (I don't, I have all notifications turned off and rarely log in)

Yes, the emotional roller coaster of this year's worth of clear outs has been monumental. 

I wear a mask when dealing with old paperwork and dusty areas so as not to inhale dust particles and mould spores, it's there even if you can't see it, you can usually smell it - that musty old book smell. 

hope you achieve your goals bit by bit.
