    Just touched on this thread for the first time, amazed, and before I slink away with a red face, realising I am actually even more of a slob than I already knew, please someone explain how to do that 'crossing through' of something on a list? Not that I'll be making a housework list... clutter is my 'comfort blanket', as long as the worktops and loos are clean the rest will wait! And cleaning the windows would only make it rain.
    twiglet - please stay and play with us.
    This really is the best,most friendly, most fun thread on the whole of MSE (and there are several slobs)
