Thanks Lamewolf.
To be honest I think I have OCD as If I have a list it HAS to be all done. I am always thinking about cleaning/tidying the house but health gets the better of me, however I thought by following this thread I could get it done a little at a time rather than a mad deep clean every now and then. Plus cleaning can become so mundane that habits form and things get forgotten. I could not believe how dirty my cat flap was!!!0 -

PM sent.
what a good idea... if Toots has a map with all the flyladies on it, she can let us know when she's passing
although she might not get down here until next christmas...
We could have a Toots tracker, like the Santa tracker?
Which is Valliland...near enough!:D:D:D
