Probably 2 freezers sef, if there is space.

2. A stack of buckets nobody is using to do anything:

WHY DO WE HAVE SO MANY BUCKETS?

That thing you think you misplaced 5 years ago?  It’s inside one of them.

As if we are storing for the Apocalypse.

9. That Christmas tree and dead Christmas lights that are older than you and your siblings:

10. All your old textbooks and report cards from primary school to secondary school:
