    Hi ladies and gents, please can I join you x I think this thread is just what I need to motivate me to clean and tidy!! my house. I am a single mum to 2 , work full time and also keep an allotment , my nearest family are over 100 miles away from me and sometimes it all gets ontop of me and I lose the will to live ;) let alone clean the house. my ironing pile is almost to the ceiling and really gets me down, this thread is such a good idea and I'm hoping it will get me back on the straight and narrow. Nicky x
