Same as lol I have a slowly expanding collection of 5 ring binders - all about to upgrade to lever arch files............. About 12 CDRs that I have stored images onto. The 1881 (pre Ancestry subs) .............. And an increasing pile of misc papers on desk. And I have NO shelf to put them on they are all piled next to desk LOL Oh yeah - and an album full of old photo's too ................. Not to mention all the stuff saved to the PC and all the emails filed on Outlook .

had to use 6 folders and one ccccccase thing, cos I never chuck anything, incase it is relevant and I don't realise. I have a fortune in certs, also pics. I can never find anything. If I knock a file over those slidey things scatter everywhere....oh look at all those c's....I need an early night X

Having spent most of today, re filing all my census/ people/ certs etc into 4 thick A4 binders.... and trying to squash them onto my shelf.... which is full of boxes of discs.. now mainly reduntant because Ancestry has it all [ bar the 41] .. plus another A4 full of 'bits and bobs' i 'might' need.... plus a pile on top of my drawers consisting of goodness knows what.... PLUS... several folders/ notebooks/ etc.. etc... etc... and have just shredded enough to fill a bin liner....... grrrrrrrrrrr...Sue xxx
