    Can I make an announcement from Yorkie Towers please?

    I have been a member of this forum for nearly 2 years. I have really struggled against the flow of c*** in my life at times .... but I have hung in there!

    In the two Decembers I have been here I have signed up for, and failed the ironing challenge.

    But SOMETHING has changed!

    I HAVE FINISHED ALL THE IRONING!!!

    I have been working hard to shift the mountain, and I have instigated new systems to ensure that current stuff is washed and ironed quickly and at 9.55am on 15th Feb 2011 all the washing and ironing is done!

    So any newbies and lurkers who think they can't do it - YOU CAN!!!!

    Jinky - lovely to see you back!

    LW - hope you had a good time with Mr LW last night!

    Off to declutter a cuppa, and then a binbag fling in the dining room I think.

    I'll do LR after lunch - DD1 is up a lot earlier these days and she's already taken over the LR. I will do it when she heads upstairs for a rest later!
