    What is a HHC? What does it involve?

    It's a Half Hour Challenge - Just put some loud music on and start cleaning/clearing an area on your list for 30 mins - great fun and even better knowing you are doing it with company! Check out PigPens first post on here for a list of all the meanings...

    Great news about being 10th now....

    OK, I'm off (bit late), anyone joining me,
    READY, STEADY, GO!

    DW on again (I've decided that I might as well put all the saucepans through it as I've used all the hot water - I had a bath last night and forgot to put in on this morning).
    Kitchen surfaces almost clear
    Bottles in car boot to take to bottle bank
    I have a whole crate of tetrapaks to deal with as well. Hampshire seem to be the only part of the country that doesn't recycle them, and I keep forgetting to take them with me to get rid of on the way to work.

    Christmasshopper - sounds like you've found a great way to motivate your daughter. You're doing well so far.

    Off shopping now. I'll catch up with you all later

    Lil_me i have voted and she's 10th now.

    I've not done a lot today and i am going to a Bodyshop party tonight so i won't get any more done.

    I'm going to try and find my list before my stepdaughter gets here to babysit.

    It said it was a half hour challenge. What's the challenge?
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D

    I'm upto 40 items now so on the last bits but finding it boring.

    Going to peel some spuds for a break. It is amazing I have so much stuff considering I have been ebaying etc.

    well done dusty on your 3 sales - thats a start!
    flower - you shouldnt have said you do online consultations - i may become a pest!!

    Woohoo I have just done my first HHC:
    Sorted out a huge pile of paperwork that I have been hiding for ages.
    Put a wash load on.
    Took my old telephone directories out to the recycling bin.
    My daughter sorted out her knitting wool and sewing threads.

    Would it be cheating if we had a chippy supper then we can carry on tidying?
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D
