The clutter of life: Lynn and Gordon
Lynn and Gordon moved to Devon nearly 25 years ago, but still haven’t unpacked.
Now they have Gordon’s parents’ possessions too.
Every box is filled with memories and objects that remind them of different people and periods in their lives.
How will they sort through the past in the present?
What should they keep and what could they discard?
Lynn and Gordon discuss the challenges of living in the present and leaving the past behind.
For them, storage has a financial cost, but an emotional one as well.
