Weekly Flylady Thread 30th September 2024
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

O/S Daily Sunday 29th September 2024
Good morning, seems fine but still dark. Hope everyone is ok, we had a fairly good day yesterday. I shopped at Lidl for a change. There's one at a shopping centre nearby. Had a quiet day after that, not much planned for today. Thinking of our sad and poorly people, take care folks.

O/S Daily Saturday 28th September 2024
Good morning - it's fine here but cold. Yesterday was brrr as well. I went out to our little high street, looked in a chazzer or two, but didn't buy anything. I saw a nice leather handbag in one of them, and was tempted, but really, I need a handbag like I need a smack in the face, so stepped away. A friend came round last…

Making bread
I started making my own a couple of years ago, mainly whole meal (with a bit of strong white flour added in to help the texture). I am totally self taught so my expertise is limited.

Freegan October Food Challenge
Aghast at the amount of food waste we're seeing by becoming Ol*o FWHs, we've decided to adopt a challenge for October: not to buy food. The rules: 1. We are allowed to buy milk. 2. We have 2 dozen eggs delivered every fortnight and we're not cancelling. 3. We are allowed to eat down freezer and cupboard supplies. 4. Child…

O/S Daily Thursday 26th September 2024
Good morning, it's raining here, cold as well. New fire now installed , it looks lovely, worth every penny. There were a few minor problems and it took a bit longer than anticipated, but it's done. TA, sorry to hear about your SIL, and your friends Dh, how sad. Understandably it brings back unhappy memories for you. Like…
