The MEGA Indexed Thread


This thread will contain links to many of the threads started in Old Style and they'll be organised into various categories to help you find them. I've done my best to put each item into the section where I think it most likely that someone would look first. I shall be starting with the older threads first and moving forward to catch up with everyone.

For those of you new to Old Style and wondering where and how to start there are some threads now listed in Getting Started.

CLEANING

Everything from the bath, through clothes, to worktops. The list is organised alphabetically by what item you want to clean, and then various er, substances, that you'd like to remove are listed by thread title.

COOKING and RECIPES

Lots of threads which contain recipes for food and drinks that are not as yet indexed in the Old Style Recipe Collection and including other assorted tips to do with cooking. (You might also want to check out the Food section below which, while primarily about growing your own etc, does have a few recipes in there)

But to see the recipes:-

CRAFTWORK

Threads here relate to making your own things for the house or as gifts, and includes making and keeping play dough. Fast becoming a real treasure chest of gift ideas! I've added things like clothes repair and dyeing.

FOOD

This is where you'll find threads about food itself rather than how to cook it. As you'll see it is subdivided into several sections:-

CHICKENS

FOOD FOR FREE

GROW YOUR OWN and GARDENING

HYGIENE & SAFETY

MISC FOOD TOPICS (includes food storage)

ORGANIC BOX SCHEMES

INSECTS (and other pests)

KITCHENWARE

I've only got crockery listed here at the time of writing but I do know that we have other threads on knives and pans and even breadmakers and slow cookers yet to be added.

MAKEUP & BODY CARE

From bathtime, through make-up to shower gel. Pamper yourself for pennies while you browse some other great tips.

MISCELLANEOUS TIPS

Pretty much anything that doesn't have its own section can be found here. If enough tips on a similar subject accumulate I'll split them out into a section of their own. Getting organised, and recycling tips are here.

PETS

Fleas and smelly litter trays etc head the list.

SHOPPING

We start with beating the supermarkets and budgeting for Christmas and follow up with budgeting in general and returning dodgy goods. Then there's the three purse system, which shops have the best deals...
