    Hi all I'm in for the first time! One question though how do you post the list & cross it out as you've done it? I never know how people get a line through writing. Please don't laugh at me if it's something really basic lol!!

    :xmastree:

    Now Pigpen will see a Christmas tree near your name and add you to the list.

    Have a great time. Well as great as you can with housework!!

    I'm in again for this week.

    Pigpen - thanks so much for the lists, it enabled me to concentrate on making a mother's day lunch instead of having to clean at the same time and have mum over to a shiny house! Feel happier and much more relaxed and inspired about cleaning for the very first time! Don't know how Iwould have ever reached this point without your help!

    Toots - hope you are ok, we all miss you on here. Take it easy if you need to and hope you'll be back soon wth your great sense of humour!

    And that is EXACTLY why this thread exists... and it is a pleasure to be helping make your life less stressful!

    I'm in. Wondering if we would all be not wanting to post on number 3. Glad you have done it AnW'smum. Thinking of you Toots.

    woohoo first page :D:D

    I was thinking just the same and *ping* has my idea! Not often I have good ideas but hopefully this is one of the better ones ;)

    I will let Toots know what we have done, she is incredibly bored at not being able to get online and I am sure she will relish being able to get back here as soon as she can.

    Frodders - the meet on April 4th. I don't do Ikea, I don't do shopping really but a nice pub lunch and a stroll would be lovely. If we can find dog friendly places, then I could even bring Beffy-Boo

    Flylady Southampton Meet - Saturday 4th April

    I have 4 defs and 3 maybes - all welcome, just let me know!

    Do people have any preference as to what we do? I was thinking either meet for a pub lunch and then go for a wander (cos the weather WILL be nice :rolleyes: ), or meet up a bit later and go for a wander first and then maybe get drink and a cake late afternoon.

    There are several things we could do - wander through the park; go to the Art and Design Market; go shopping (or to IKEA!!); or there are self-guided walks (Titanic trail, Jane Austen trail); or we can just sit and chat in a pub / cafe / park.

    Any preferences? I'm happy just to make the decision if it's easier, but wanted to give people a chance to choose.

    I'm planning on keeping it to central S'ton, so easy access for the train station.

    I'm in again - struggling a bit last week but I shall start afresh as from now.

    SunnyGirl - when you edit your list and want to cross out what you've done, look at the line of icons immediately above where you are typing - the very far right hand one has an "s" with a line through it....that is the "strikethrough" button. Highlight your text, then click the button - hey presto!
