    Good evening,

    Johnny Depp can make me put a bit of effort when I work at home; for that matter Richard Gere can as well. It is time for the old trackies and fleeces to go. Right.

    Hypno, all this organising you are doing is starting to worry me as well and on two counts. I start feeling about you and I start worrying about me - my experience is that when you all start organising I follow. I have a reputation to keep, you know, I am a chaotic creative destructor.

    Sorry forgot (see still chaotic). The way I manage to take lunch with me (I have always hated what is on offer around my office anyway) is to freeze little boxes of stews and soups that I cook. Nice, home made soup and fresh bread for lunch - delicious.

    "In the grand "organise my life" plan, I have bought dress covers for my more formal party clothes, and divider thingies for my drawers for putting my undies in. Over the next few weeks I aim to have all my dresses and suits in covers and those shoes that don't get worn very much but need keeping nice (killer heels, mainly :D) in clear shoe boxes."

    I've been organising things too. Admittedly with being on the move one thing I'm doing which sounds silly is separating makeup type things into hands/feet, actual makeup, and skin creams etc.. At least you can find them quicker when travelling :)

    Why don't you start with the low-cut top and take it from there..? ;)

    I would need to start with developing a cleavage before such items of clothing became required.....losing weight has its disadvantages!!!

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
