Declutter and organise photos with Peter Walsh
Peter is helping us out with something that nearly everyone can relate to – dealing with the unsorted photos taking up space on your phone or languishing in boxes in your home.
“Without fail, when I give a talk about getting organised, I’m always asked how to deal with photos,” says Peter.
Boxes of unsorted photos can feel overwhelming to organise so they often get left for many years to clutter up our houses. In addition to this, most of us have smartphones that make it easy to take photos anywhere, so pretty soon our digital photo life becomes cluttered too.

We're talking new year resolutions...
Tidying the house before going to bed each night, meditating upon waking or taking the stairs at work.
What’s something quick, or easy, that you started doing that made a major positive change in your life?
Fruit destroyed on your trees?
Greetings, Neighbours. The guava moth is out and about. You'll notice pinholes in your fruit where the moth has laid its egg - which hatches into a grub which burrows throughout your fruit and makes it inedible. You can make traps (see on-line) and/or pick up fallen fruit (twice a day, if possible) and put in a bucket of water overnight. I've found this to be the best method as it destroys the second generation. Please do it. (Funny/peculiar thing: we have a couple of mini guava trees and the moths never touch them.) And pick fruit early if necessary, put in a paper bag with a banana and store for a few days at room temperature. Fruit will ripen, even if only for jam. Well done the person on Jade Avenue who has covered their plum tree with netting.
Making of traps: buy a few small garden/driveway lights from Bunnings -$3 each). Unscrew the small solar lamp and pull off the pointy bit. Then force the lamp into the top of a milk bottle. Cut holes in the milk bottle so the moth can enter as it seeks the light. (Pics on-line.)
Happy New Year, David H.
