I think my flat actually makes it into the 'minging dirty' category rather than the untidy category, I am often disgusted as i walk through the front door of an evening.
I need a good declutter and deep clean and start again, the thing is that I just have so much stuff and the thought of it totally overwhelms me.£34,547 (Dec 07); Current debt: £zilch (Debt free December 2010)

I walked past my neighbours flat the other day she had her front door and kitchen window open. It looked all shiny and neat plus a beautiful odour of flowers wafted out. I opened the door to my identical in design flat and was ashamed - it had nice layer of dust, stuff litering most surfaces and smelled nothing like flowers. But guess thats why I keep my kitchen blind partially closed :rotfl:Looking for the perfect home and saving to make becoming a MFW easier
