Loft clearing

As I am clearing the loft, what do I do with the old toys, paperwork from school, even some clothes, belonging to my children.  In the past when the children where younger a lot of their stuff when finished was handed on to someone else through jumble sales, fetes, charity shops etc.  Now I am thinking that most of this stuff has been around over 20 years.  If it has been in my loft that long surely it can stay in the loft a little longer while the kids decide what they want to do with it.  I am of an age were most older couples have a few grandchildren running around, my children  have yet to settle down part of me thinks good for them, there is no point tying yourself down to young, find out what you want to do with your life, travel, build a career.  Then I have that little voice in my head saying wouldn't it be nice if we had grandchildren it can't be long now surely.  They then would be able to enjoy the old things of their parents youth, my children loved the fact that Kevin and I had hung onto a few bits and piece, some old exercise books from when we where at school.

Sentimentality does not alter the fact that I have loft filled with over thirty years of stuff, and it could end up being there for them to clear out when I am dead.  I know for a fact most of it will end up as land fill, so I am better off getting rid of it now so that someone can get the benefit of it and the children can enjoy the toys.  Despite the fact I know that if I do some one will make an announcement, sods law I'm afraid.  Oh well Maureen what has to be done has to be done, out it goes.  I may compromise and keep one box for each child.  Shame however I can't do that for Kevin but never mind eh.
