    Frodders....you're more than welcome to the 60 in 60, I 'borrowed' some ideas from other people last week.

    I'm also going to add a challenge...every time I post I have to have done something flylady(ish) - what do you mean that's the whole idea:rotfl:!

    So, i've just put the towels in the dryer for ten minutes and loaded the next wash into the machine:Txx

    mummyof5 - wonderful news on your new grand-daughter, hope mum & baby are both doing well.

    toots - was very moved to read your post. I admit I don't know what to say, other than to echo what other flypeople have said in previous posts & that I hope you stay as healthy as possible for as long as possible & my thoughts are with you.
