    Besides it's way too long a list. Next time, the first thing on my list will be:

    1. Write a very short list.

    In fact that will be the only thing on my lists from now on! :D

    Your list is like Nargles housework nicca - its not going anywhere so it will still look the same if you ignore it for a day or 2. (however I suspect you might do better at ignoring your list than nargle will with her housework - bet you've done most of it already haven't you nargle?)

    nicca - I think you need to write a list otherwise you'll have nothing to prevaricate or procrastinate about :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Tixy - Nargle's probably done all her housework, made soup, baked cakes, made her fishcakes and is probably more than half way through her budget plan by now - at the very least!

    Me, I'm thinking about doing some more work:)

    +1 for this. The more I do today the less I have to do over the weekend. I know this so what am I faffing around on here?

    Housework? What's that?

    I take after my late mother - rather read a book than clean the windows.
