  • Hi
    Am new to this but have lurked for months now! Just wanted to say thanks for giving me the shove I needed to get my home in order! DH can't believe the change in the house and the fact that he gets 'proper' food whilst 2 DDs and 1 DS are hooked on weetabix brownies and I sound like an advert for Stardrops to anyone who'll listen! The only problem is that I have to stop myself from logging on at work - or nothing will get done!
    Thxs again! :T
