    Will you wear it a lot? If you will I think that;s a great price for a coat and it looks lovely.

    The clothes I bought a couple of weeks ago in a sale online have been reduced again, 70% off now:mad: Would have saved £50 if I had waited. Patience is not one of my strong points.

    Me too, I bought some clothes and they have been reduced so much, I would have saved £100.

  • FlyLady is a 'home organisation' system, see www.flylady.net . It's v American and supremely cheesy but it really does work, I am not naturally organised and will take any help I can get (especially when mad enough to try doing too much eg. full time job and two degrees). 'Franny' is their name for super-stressed, disorganised nemesis! I haven't yet told work that some of their project management is now adapted from a housework system :D but will happily discuss my lovely feather duster and car boogies with anybody til they glaze over :rotfl:

    Oooo I Fly lady too I love her and am in fact about to do a 25 fling and 15 min of tidying.

    she is fab - Sarah its an actual self help book that really works although you don't strike me as disorganised?

    I would read but I am still wrapping so have a lovely Christmas my darling single friends, we should all celebrate our Uniqueness and not be worried what Society thinks!!! remember what Lulaha says ! !!!! off I am fabulous!!

    Love you lots xxxx
    Nevertheless she persisted.
  • Bathgate, fancy meeting up to do the Glasgow ladies 10K? could give us something to aim for?

    Could do. I used to always do it regularly - from memory it's about 5 or 6 times, but at the moment, running up 10 steps would be a hard task!
    Almost debt-free, but certainly even with the Banks!

  • Oh God, there was a very realistic sound of a baby crying in the other room - thankfully it was Gavin and Stacey on the TV. Phew! Always panics me and I don't even have a baby!

    Ahem. Cough. Splutter. I am the world's most disorganised person. I saw the flylady thread on the OS board. Had to click away from it quickly as reading through it I actually became scared. I love the fact that I appear organised though! :j

    No I'm not in scotland - * breathes sigh of relief at not having to run * ;) .

    Susu, am close to london & can ride a bike but sadly my front tyre is all cracked & the inner tube oozes out at the edges :rolleyes: .

    I'll definitely put buying a new tyre on my 2009 list tho :D .

    I just checked out the flylady link & am scared at having to throw away 27 items in one go :eek: .

    I am going to have a serious declutter over the next week though & I vow to get rid of clothes that neither fit my body or my lifestyle :o

    Buffy, hope your christmas goes well & keep muttering the mantra to yourself when faced with hostility :A
