Weekly Flylady Thread 24 March 2025
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.

Good morning it's a fine start here. Yesterday was sunny but the wind was bitter. We are lunching out with ds, dil, and dil's mum to celebrate Mother's day, as we did last year. Dd and family are in their cottage in Weardale for the weekend as usual, but we'll see them late afternoon when they come back. That's today's…

Olio banning users incorrectly?
Hi, have any other Olio users been banned and accounts deleted this morning? Both my wife and I got the same email at 10:26 saying we’re banned for having multiple accounts. We have 1 each, well within the rules, but we do need to use each others phones occasionally to list items. Looks like the new system Olio has in…

Lent Sacrifices
Tomorrow is Shrove Tuesday, which made me wonder whether anyone is giving anything up for Lent? 40 days isn't that long to give something up knowing you can return to it, but it is long enough to kick off a habit. Thoughts?

Nothing at all wrong with putting Bananas in the Fridge ( if … )
Perfectly all right if o you put them on the top shelf (warmest area of fridge and same temp as ship storage ) o they are green and you want to let them sit longer to ripen than storing elsewhere o you just want them to keep longer o you don’t mind the outside getting a bit brown sometimes
