Weekly Flylady Thread 26th May 2025
Welcome to the weekly Flylady Thread. 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…

Till May Be Out
I keep quoting the phrase 'Ne'er cast a clout till May be out', because I love it (and because I'm quite annoying 😁) But it rings true not just for clothing (though obvs take a layer with you) but for OATs, our Outstanding Annoying Tasks So May's thread is all about not shrugging off the tasks we know we should get done,…

Save Water, Save Money, Save The Planet
Over the last month, the News has been full of stories of the UK facing an impending drought. Having grown up in Australia - and lived through several droughts plus water restrictions - I thought it might be worth us having a place where all water saving tips were collected. Here are mine: * Switch off the tap while you're…

O/S daily Wednesday 28th May
Good morning all from a sleep deprived Mehefinland Something has been banging about outside all night in the strong winds. For the life of me I can not work out what and where it is. A daylight foray required, although it is quite light already and the sun is peeking out from behind the clouds. Hopefully a better day than…

O/S Daily Sunday 25th May 2025
Good morning, it's a fine start here, and feels as if it's going to be warmish. I would like to get some bedding plants into containers in the back yard today - we'll surely not be getting any frost now, even here in the N East! Our backyard faces south west anyway, and is sheltered. Yesterday was an ok day, I had a…

Lakeland compressor ice cream maker
Just bought this. Very disappointed with the first recipe I made, from the booklet but with the addition of fruit. The condensed milk no beating recipe I previously made was much creamier and more delicious. Does anyone have one and is pleased with the results? If I can’t do better than this it’s going back!

O/S Daily Friday 23rd May
Good morning all from mehefinland Another sleepless night.. lots on my mind which doesn't help. At least the blisteringly cold wind we suffered yesterday seems to have abated. My friend is on her way to the Hebrides in her little campervan so I hope the weather is kind to her. I volunteered/was coerced into garden duties,…

What to make with two avocados
I've been given 2 avocados and need some inspiration please. I was going to mash them up and add them to some oats, sultanas and an egg (then stick the mixture on a tray and bake in the oven ---------> think flapjack). Anyone else got a better idea (sweet or savoury)?
