    ooh... If I clean out the rabbits.. can I count every poop??? so that would mean the 100 and 60 and binbag dance would all be done at once!!

    Only if I can clean out the guinea pig and count the poos in that! (I've a feeling we're becoming sad....don't say 'what do you mean BECOMING!!!). I might also declutter stripes hair when I brush her:rotfl:xx

    A 60 in 60 is putting away, chucking, charity bagging 60 things in 60 minutes....a genius idea:rotfl:xx

    Can't think why you're so keen on the idea!

    And soappie - keep quiet about the windows please... mine are quite clean enough. Pre-flylady the insides were cleaned once every blue moon. Now I know they've all been done several times in the last year. As long as they aren't growing mould I'm quite happy...

  • Hello all - back again!

    It took a little longer than a HHC - DD would not let me in her room as she has not even started tidying it. Me thinks I will take the router with me to work tomorrow.....

    I have told her that I will be inthere before I go to work in the morning - I leave at 09.30 - don't think she has thought this through as she is not nromally awake until lunch time!

    Anyway I have washed up - and done 2 full muck buckets of weeds from the front garden. Also planted some sick looking tomato plants that I have been given - they have two chances. Cannot really see any difference in the garden yet - still full of weeds but I suppose every little helps.

    Right now will help DS fill in application form for part time job - and then find card to Great Aunt who is in hospital - must do this as it should have been doen week before last. Then will write to GP for Mum
