Do shops ever run out of turkeys at christmas
I am hosting 10 this Christmas. I am thinking two turkey crowns at each end of the table. Going to get frozen because for me, it’s all about the trimmings. I have limited freezer space. But I was wondering if anyone has known the shops to run out of turkeys at Christmas. Was going to buy them on 22 or 23. They will slowly…

What is FLYLADY? Well, it's our version of the US flylady idea - but we work on the principle that housework is not fun, it's boring, can be time-consuming, is often thankless but, unfortunately, necessary. It's here on Old Style to provide the support we all need and to make the whole task easier and quicker. We also…

It’s that time again!

If…

How to 'wrap' tickets bought for grandchildren to make it special??
I have two grandchildren in Australia and 3 here in UK. We are very lucky to all be meeting up in Sydney next year and I have bought tickets for Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb as Christmas presents for them all. A bit selfish, I won't be going, but hope the photos of them all together will be the biggest gift for me. Any…

I always prep veg just before using for freshness etc.but I've got an event pileup and friends lunch situation where I'm cutting corners and prepping as much the night before.

Christmas tips - postmen, dustmen, deliveries etc?
Just curious.......for those of us who choose to tip dustmen, postmen etc at Christmas (and yes, I know, they're just doing their jobs and nobody tips the till operators in Tesco!) what's reckoned to be a reasonable amount? I'll kick off with £25 for the postman and £25 for the guys who collect the rubbish, but I'm…

Egym - thoughts?
I currently go to a Nuffield gym. I like it, it’s clean, friendly and has a leisure pool, a sauna and a steam room. I pay for a personal trainer - which makes sure I go. It’s awkward to get to by public transport even though it is only 3 miles away. I’m happy to cycle in the summer but in the current dismal weather I…
