Do I need to hoard these documents?

[Vincent]

A few years ago our friend (the one with the half-brain cat) got a letter from the Council saying she hadn't payed any council tax for an address she and her hubby lived in about 15 years ago.

She went hunting about the house, pulled out the council tax book in question and found that she did infact pay it.

So the next day she went down to the office and showed them the book.  Needless to say they were gobsmacked at seeing the relic :-D

Keep everything! How much space does it take up, anyway?

Just don't try to move house with it all!  We did that - absolute nightmare, how 5 people are meant to live in this house I don't know, it's barely got enough room for the two of us :-o :-P

Instead of selling your house and buying a new one, just buy a new one next door and keep all the receipts in the old one :-P
