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.

Dear Neighbours,

At our home on Sunday morning, an unidentified person was captured by our security camera approaching our open front door, looking inside, and subsequently walking around the side of the house. Upon being questioned, they said they were looking for an individual not known to us and left without further enquiry. They were carrying a black case, had a rug over one shoulder, had a back pack, and wore a cap and sunglasses. See photo.

We have not experienced any harm, but as a precaution, we’ve reported the occurrence to the police.

If you have had a similar encounter or have any information, please do get in touch.

Stay safe. Warm regards,

Paul
